Jewel is 7 years old and John is 16 years younger than Dave. One year ago, Dvae's age was twice the sum of Jewel's and John's ag

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Jewel is 7 years old

John is 1 year old

Dave is 17 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Jewel age is $J=7 years$

John age $J'=(D-16)years$

Dave's age a Year ago

$D-1=2(J-1+J'-1)$

So that Dave.s age this Year could be

$D=2((J-1)+(J'-1))+1$

Simplifying Equation for Dave's age we have

$D=2((7)-1+(D-16)-1)+1$

$D=2(6+D-15)+1$

$D=2(D-9)+1$

$D=2D-18+1$

$D=17 Years$

Dave is 17 years old

Therefore

Johns age is

$J'=(D-16)$

$J'=17-16$

$J'=1year old$

John is 1 year old

Marcus is picking songs to play during a slideshow. The songs are each 3\dfrac123 2 1 3, start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end

laila [671]

Answer:

number of songs = 9 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Marcus the the song are each 3 start fraction , 1 divided by 2 end fraction minutes long. This can be expressed mathematically as 3 1/2 minutes long.

The slide show is 31, start fraction , 1 divided by, 2 end fraction minutes. This can be expressed also as 31 1/2 minutes long. The slide show contains the entire song.

Recall each song is 3 1/2 minutes long . The whole number fraction can be converted to improper fraction as 7/2 minutes long.

The whole slides show can be converted to improper fractions as 63/2 minutes long.

The number of song in the slideshow can be solved when we divide the total time in the slideshow by the time of each song.

number of songs = 63/2 ÷ 7/2

number of songs = 63/2 × 2/7

number of songs = 63/7

number of songs = 9 songs
