Answer: The sum of their ages is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be translated to:

in 15 years from now, Jorge's age will be 2 times the age of Eduardo.

If 6 years ago the age of Jorge was the triple of the one of Eduardo.

Find the sum of their ages:

If E is Eduardo's age and J is Jorge's age, we have a system of equations:

J + 15 = 2(E + 15)

J - 6 = 3*E

The first step is isolating one of the variables in one of the equations, let's isolate J in the second equation:

J - 6 = 3E

J = 3E  +6

Now we can replace it in the first equation:

J + 15 = 2E

3E + 6 + 15 = 2E + 30

3E + 21 = 2E + 30

3E - 2E = 30 - 21 = 9

E = 9

Eduardo is 9 years old:

J = 3E + 6 = 3*9 + 6 = 27 + 6 = 33

Jorge is 33 years old.

then E + J = 33 + 9 = 42

the rectangular post shown at the right measures 2w-30 by w. the poster has an area of 5400 cm^2. what is The value of w ?
borishaifa [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

w(2w - 30) = 5400

2w²- 30w = 5400

2w² - 30w - 5400 = 0

(w - 60 ) ( w + 45 ) = 0

w= 60 w= - 45

only take the positive value

therefore w = 60

Suppose that 45% of people have dogs. If two people are randomly chosen, what is the probability that they both have a dog
mylen [45]

Answer:

P(Dogs) = 0.2025

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Proportion, p = 45\%

Required

Probability of two people having dog

First, we have to convert the given parameter to decimal

p = \frac{45}{100}

p = 0.45

Let P(Dogs) represent the required probability;

This is calculated as thus;

<em>P(Dogs) = Probability of first person having a dog * Probability of second person having a dog</em>

<em />

P(Dogs) = p * p

P(Dogs) = 0.45 * 0.45

P(Dogs) = 0.45^2

P(Dogs) = 0.2025

<em>Hence, the probability of 2 people having a dog is </em>P(Dogs) = 0.2025<em />

1. f(x)=x²+10x+16

Use the formula to find the vertex = (-b/2a, f(-b/2a)) , here in the above equation a=1(As, a>0 the parabola is open upward), b=10. by putting the values.

-b/2a = -10/2(1) = -5

f(-b/2a)= f(-5)= (-5)²+10(-5)+16= -9

So, Vertex = (-5, -9)

Now, find y- intercept put x=0 in the above equation. f(0)= 0+0+16, we get point (0,16).

Now find x-intercept put y=0 in the above equation. 0= x²+10x+16

x²+10x+16=0 ⇒x²+8x+2x+16=0 ⇒x(x+8)+2(x+8)=0 ⇒(x+8)(x+2)=0 ⇒x=-8 , x=-2

From vertex, y-intercept and x-intercept you can easily plot the graph of given parabolic equation. The graph is attached below.

2. f(x)=−(x−3)(x+1)

By multiplying the factors, the general form is f(x)= -x²+2x+3.

Use the formula to find the vertex = (-b/2a, f(-b/2a)) , here in the above equation a=-1(As, a<0 the parabola is open downward), b=2. by putting the values.

-b/2a = -2/2(-1) = 1

f(-b/2a)= f(1)=-(1)²+2(1)+3= 4

So, Vertex = (1, 4)

Now, find y- intercept put x=0 in the above equation. f(0)= 0+0+3, we get point (0, 3).

Now find x-intercept put y=0 in the above equation. 0= -x²+2x+3.

-x²+2x+3=0 the factor form is already given in the question so, ⇒-(x-3)(x+1)=0 ⇒x=3 , x=-1

From vertex, y-intercept and x-intercept you can easily plot the graph of given parabolic equation. The graph is attached below.

3. f(x)= −x²+4

Use the formula to find the vertex = (-b/2a, f(-b/2a)) , here in the above equation a=-1(As, a<0 the parabola is open downward), b=0. by putting the values.

-b/2a = -0/2(-1) = 0

f(-b/2a)= f(0)= −(0)²+4 =4

So, Vertex = (0, 4)

Now, find y- intercept put x=0 in the above equation. f(0)= −(0)²+4, we get point (0, 4).

Now find x-intercept put y=0 in the above equation. 0= −x²+4

−x²+4=0 ⇒-(x²-4)=0 ⇒ -(x-2)(x+2)=0 ⇒x=2 , x=-2

From vertex, y-intercept and x-intercept you can easily plot the graph of given parabolic equation. The graph is attached below.

4. f(x)=2x²+16x+30

Use the formula to find the vertex = (-b/2a, f(-b/2a)) , here in the above equation a=2(As, a>0 the parabola is open upward), b=16. by putting the values.

-b/2a = -16/2(2) = -4

f(-b/2a)= f(-4)= 2(-4)²+16(-4)+30 = -2

So, Vertex = (-4, -2)

Now, find y- intercept put x=0 in the above equation. f(0)= 0+0+30, we get point (0, 30).

Now find x-intercept put y=0 in the above equation. 0=2x²+16x+30

2x²+16x+30=0 ⇒2(x²+8x+15)=0 ⇒x²+8x+15=0 ⇒x²+5x+3x+15=0 ⇒x(x+5)+3(x+5)=0 ⇒(x+5)(x+3)=0 ⇒x=-5 , x= -3

From vertex, y-intercept and x-intercept you can easily plot the graph of given parabolic equation. The graph is attached below.

5. y=(x+2)²+4

The general form of parabola is y=a(x-h)²+k , where vertex = (h,k)

if a>0 parabola is opened upward.

if a<0 parabola is opened downward.

Compare the given equation with general form of parabola.

-h=2 ⇒h=-2

k=4

so, vertex= (-2, 4)

As, a=1 which is greater than 0 so parabola is opened upward and the graph has minimum.

The graph is attached below.

If g(x) = 2x + 3 and f(x) = x<br><br>2 − 49x, find all solutions of the equation f(g(x)) = 0.
sdas [7]
Basically you just have to plug in g(x) wherever you see an x in the equation f(x) since x is f(x) you just substitute it . So f(g(x))=2x+3

You then just have to solve for 0

0=2x+3
Subtract 3 from both sides
-3=2x
Divide by 2
X=-3/2
