Answer:
The eldest of them is Brian and he is 24 + 2 = 26 years old. 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 
Malachy age = a
Brian age = a + 2
Caroline age = a - 8
Total of their age = a + (a + 2) + (a - 8)
66 = a + (a + 2) + (a - 8)
collect like terms
66 = a + a + 2 + a - 8
66 = a + a + a - 6
3a = 66 + 6
3a = 72
divide both sides by 3
a = 72/3
a = 24
Malachy age is 24 . Caroline is 24 - 8 = 16 years old. 
The eldest of them is Brian and he is 24 + 2 = 26 years old. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
D) What is the number of gallons of water in a pool?
Step-by-step explanation:
A statistical question consists of varied responses and not just 1 specific answer. For example, the first 3 questions only have 1 specific answer each, while the last question can vary depending on the size of the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number with two decimal places be 1.23
Let the number with one decimal place be 4.5
Then 1.23 multiplied by 4.5
= 1.23 × 4.5
= 5.535
The result has more than two nonzero digits. 
Note: When you multiply two decimal numbers, the decimal place(s) of the result is the addition of the decimal places of each of the numbers being multiplied.

Answer:
   102
Step-by-step explanation:
The total of ratio units is ...
   6 + 3 + 8 = 17
The difference between the Charlie's ratio units and Adrian's ratio units is ...
   8 - 6 = 2
That is, the total number of ratio units is 17/2 = 8.5 times that difference.
The actual difference is 12 sweets, so the total number of sweets is ...
   8.5 × 12 = 102 . . . . total sweets
