Let Daniel's age be 'x' years , hence, Lisa's age is (x - 5) years. Let Grandma's age be 'y' = 54 years.
Hence,
x(x - 5) = 2/3 × y
x² - 5x = 2 × 54 years / 3
x² - 5x = 36 years
x² - 5x - 36 = 0
∆ = (-5)² - 4(1)(-36) = 25 + 144 = 169
√∆ = √169 = 13
x1 = (5+13)/2, x2 = (5-13)/2
x1 = 9, x2 = -4
Since, age can't be negative,
Daniel's age = x = 9 years.
Answer:
The distance between the cruise ship and the sail boat is 517 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cruise ship is 236 feet tall, and the sailboat is 236 tall; this means the distance between the top of the cruise ship and the top of the sail boat is
236 feet - 27 feet = 209 feet.
We also know that the angel of depression from the top of the cruise ship to the bottom of the cruise ship is 22°. This forms a right triangle as shown in the figure attached.
Now from trigonometry we get:
The distance between the cruise ship and the sailboat is 517 feet.
Solve for ppp. 16-3p=\dfrac23p+516−3p= 3 2 p+516, minus, 3, p, equals, start fraction, 2, divided by, 3, end fraction, p, plus
Ksivusya [100]
Given:
The given equation is:
To find:
The value of p.
Solution:
We have,
Multiply both sides by 3.
Isolating the variable terms, we get
Divide both sides by 11, we get
Therefore, the required solution is 
.
Answer:
x = 9/2 or x= 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
you factor out the equation:
5x-15=3x-6
+15 +15
5x=3x+9
-3x -3x
2x=9
x=9/2 or 4.5
