Answer: Jack is 8 years old (option A)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation using the information given:

  • <em>Twice Jack's age plus 5 is 21 </em>

Twice : Means that the age of jack (j) is multiplied by 2 (2j),  

Plus 5: we have to add 5 (2j+5).  

Is 21: all is equal to 21.

Mathematically speaking:

2j +5 =21

Solving:

2j =21-5

2j =16

j= 16/2

j=8

Option A). 8

Option A) 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle PQR

The function sine of angle Q is equal to divide the opposite side to angle Q by the hypotenuse

sin(Q)=\frac{PR}{PQ}

substitute the values

sin(Q)=\frac{9}{15}=0.6

Suppose a bag of marbles has 4 green, 2 red, 5 yellow, 1 brown, and 7 blue marbles. What is the probability of picking a red mar
swat32

Assuming that each marble can be picked with equal probability, we notice that there is a total of

4+2+5+1+7 = 19

marbles, of which 2 are red.

So, the probability of picking a red marble is

\dfrac{2}{19}

In fact, as in any other case of (finite) equidistribution, we used the formula

P(\text{event}) = \dfrac{\text{number of favourable cases}}{\text{number of all possible cases}}

Last year, Theodora estimated that she would sell 96 bracelets. But at the end of the year, she had 16 bracelets left over. Whic
Likurg_2 [28]
%error=100(estimated-actual)/actual

%error=100(96-(96-16))/(96-16)

%error=100(16/80)

%error=1600/80

%error=20%

She overestimated how many bracelets she would sell by 20%
