Answer:
<u>The sum of their ages now is 13</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Dally's age = x
Dilly's age = x - 7
In 4 years time Dilly will be half Dally’s age, therefore:
Dilly's age plus four equals to half of Dally’s age plus four,
replacing with the values and variables we know:
x - 7 + 4 = (x + 4) /2
x - 3 = (x + 4) /2
2x - 6 = x + 4 (Multiplying by 2 at both sides)
2x - x = 4 + 6 (Like terms)
x = 10 ⇒ x - 7 = 3
<u>The sum of their ages now is 13 (10 + 3)</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
oh, come one ! you can literally see that one ...
a full rotation on a clock is a full circle and stands therefore for 360°.
for the minute hand these 360° represent 60 minutes.
4 minutes of 60 is a fraction, a ratio, and the same ratio applies then also to 360°.
4/60 = 1/15
360 × 1/15 = 24°
so, 4 minutes represent 24°.
Slope is 2 and the y intercept is 4
The answer is a I think that is correct
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since < A and < B are vertical angles, then it means that they have the same measure.
Given that m < A = (3x - 21)°, and m < B = (2x - 13)°:
We can set up the following equation to solve for the value of x:
m < A = m < B
(3x - 21)° = (2x - 13)°
3x - 21 = 2x - 13
Subtract 2x from both sides:
3x - 2x - 21 = 2x - 2x - 13
x - 21 = -13
Add 21 to both sides to isolate and solve for the value of x:
x - 21 + 21 = -13 + 21
x = 8
We must verify if we have the correct value for x by plugging in 8 into the equality statement:
(3x - 21)° = (2x - 13)°
[3(8) - 21]° = [2(8) - 13]°
(24 - 21)° = (16 - 13)°
3° = 3° (True statement. This means that we have the correct value for x).
Therefore, the value of x = 8.
