If Jeff has 5 grasshoppers, then he would have 15 crickets because x(grasshoppers)+10=y(crickets), and y(crickets)+5=z(ladybugs), which would leave Jeff with 20 ladybugs.

Chistopher is 20 years younger than ishaan. Ishaan and chistopher first met two years ago. Fourteen years ago, ishaan was 3 time
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Ishaan is 49 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Christopher be 'C'.

Let the present age of Ishaan be 'I'.

From the given data, we can form equations which will help us solve the problem.

Christopher is 20 years younger than Ishaan. This means:

C = I - 20                  . . . (1)

Fourteen years ago, Ishaan would have been (I -14) years old and Christopher (C - 14) years old.

From the data, I - 14 = 3(C - 14)         . . . (2)

Substituting the value of C in Equation 2, we get:

I - 14 = 3(I - 20 - 14)

⇒ I - 14 = 3(I - 34)

⇒ I - 14 = 3I - 112

⇒ 2I = 112 + 14 = 98

⇒ I = 49

So, Ishaan is 49 years old.

Find the area of a circle circumscribing an equilateral triangle of side 15cm.<br> Take pi = 3.14.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

236 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of an equilateral triangle (h) = √3 /2 (l)

l = side of the equilateral triangle.

h = √3 /2 (15)

In an equilateral triangle the orthocenter, centroid, circumcenter and incenter are in the same spot

The center of the circle is the centroid and height match  with the median. The radius of the circumcircle is equal to two thirds the height.

Formula for the Radius of the circumcircle = 2/3 h

= 2/3 x √3 /2 (15)

= 5 √3 cm     (=radius)

Area of the circle = πr^

= 3.14 x( 5 √3 ) ^

=3.14 x(25*3)

=3.14 x 75

=235.5

=236 cm²
