Let their ages be g and k.  Then g = k + 3.

Next:  (g+7) + (k+7) = 41.

Substituting k + 3 for g in the above equation, we get  k + 3 + 7 + k + 7 = 41.

Combining like terms:  2k + 17 = 41.  Then 2k = 24, and k = 12.

Kevin is 12 years old and Greg is 15 years.

The dot plots show rainfall totals for several spring storms in highland areas and lowland areas. What is the median rainfall fo
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Median highland = 16 mm

Median lowland = 16 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

For the highland area :

The sample size, n = 44

Obtain the median value using :

1/2 * (n + 1)th term

1/2 * (44 +1) th term

1/2 * 45 = 22.5th term.

(22nd + 23rd) term / 2

(16 + 16) / 2 = 16 mm

For the lowland area :

1/2 * (n + 1)th term

1/2 * (44 +1) th term

1/2 * 45 = 22.5th term.

(22nd + 23rd) term / 2

(12 + 12) / 2 = 12 mm

Answer:

59.25 currency ; No. of cans rounded to next whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a perpendicular line frrom the 12m. line onto the 20m. line. We get a rectangle on the left and a right-triangle on the right.

Using Pythagorous theorem,

Fence = \sqrt{17^{2} - 8^{2}} m = 15 m

So, area of the lawn = ( 1/2 ) * ( 12 + 20 ) * 16 sqm = 240 sqm

So, number of cans needed = 240/100 = 2.4 ≈ 3 [Cause cans can't be partially bought ]

Total cost = 3 * 19.75 currency = 59.25 currency

( However, if cans can be partially bought, then total cost = 47.4 currency )

stephen and bridget win some money and share it in the ratio 5:2. stephen gets £65. how much does bridget get
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Bridget will get the amount as £26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount Stephen gets = £65

Amount shared in ratio = 5:2

We need to find the amount Bridget gets.

Solution:

Let the common factor in the ratio be 'x'.

Amount Stephen gets = 5x

Amount Bridget gets = 2x

But we know that;

Amount Stephen gets = £65

so we can say that;

5x=65

Now dividing both side by 5 we get;

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{65}{5}\\\\x=13

So now we get;

Amount Bridget gets = 2x=2\times 13 = \£26

Hence Bridget will get the amount as £26.
