Benny’s age is currently 200% of his sister Jenny’s age. What percent of Benny’s age will Jenny’s age

Mathematics

Sav [38]3 years ago

Answer:

The lower the age of Benny and Jenny, the% between the age of both, the more it decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the exact percentage, the age of one of the two is necessary. I demonstrate it with several examples.

Let B be Benny's age

Let J be Jenny's age

We are told that Benny's age is 200% Jenny's age, we know that 200% is 2, therefore:

B / J = 2

Now if B = 2 and J = 1

2/1 = 2

After 4 years:

B + 4 / J + 4 = (2 + 4) / (1 + 4) = 1.2, i.e. 120%

Another example, if B = 4 and J = 2

4/2 = 2

After 4 years:

B + 4 / J + 4 = (4 + 4) / (2 + 4) = 1.33, that is 133%

Another example, if B = 6 and J = 3

6/3 = 2

After 4 years:

B + 4 / J + 4 = (6 + 4) / (3 + 4) = 1.43, that is 143%

The conclusion is that the lower the age of Benny and Jenny, the% between the age of both, the more it decreases.

10(8r+23) =1430 <br> HELP PLS ITS FOR MY HW PLS PLS PLS
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

r = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

10(8r + 23) = 1430

Divide both sides by 10.

8r + 23 = 143

Subtract 23 from both sides.

8r = 120

Divide both sides by 8.

r = 15

Given the equation 2 Square root of x minus 5 = 2, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.
leonid [27]
<span>2 square root (x - 5) = 2. 2^2 (x -5) = 2^2. 4(x - 5) = 4. 4x - 20 = 4. 4x = 24. x = 6. This solution is not extraneous, because extraneous solutions emerge from solving the problem but are not actually valid solutions for the initial problem. With rounding, this solution is valid for the initial problem.</span>
