Jane is Billy's sister, Jane is 3 years older than 2 times Billy's age. If Billy is 7 years old then how old is Jane?

2 x 7(billy's age) = 14
^2 times billy's age

14 + 3 = Jane's age
^3 years older(added) than 2 times billy's age

17 = Jane's age

hope this helps and have a great day :)

J(Jane) + 3 = B(Billy)*2
J + 3 = 7(2)
J + 3 = 14
J = 14-3
J = 11 (Jane is 11)Cheers!

Just choose 2 numbers from {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...} and make sure the one you input for x is larger.

Post the three in the comments and I will check them for you.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to choose 2 positive integers for x and y where x>y.

Positive integers are {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,.....}.

I'm going to start with (x,y)=(2,1).

x=2 and y=1.

$(2^2+1^2)^2=(2^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot2\cdot1)^2$

$(4+1)^2=(4-1)^2+(4)^2$

$(5)^2=(3)^2+(4)^2$

So one Pythagorean Triple is (3,4,5).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(3,1).

x=3 and y=1.

$(3^2+1^2)^2=(3^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot3\cdot1)^2$

$(9+1)^2=(9-1)^2+(6)^2$

$(10)^2=(8)^2+(6)^2$

So another Pythagorean Triple is (6,8,10).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(3,2).

x=3 and y=2.

$(3^2+2^2)^2=(3^2-2^2)^2+(2\cdot3\cdot2)^2$

$(9+4)^2=(9-4)^2+(12)^2$

$(13)^2=(5)^2+(12)^2$

So another is (5,12,13).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(4,1).

$(4^2+1^2)^2=(4^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot4\cdot1)^2$

$(16+1)^2=(16-1)^2+(8)^2$

$(17)^2=(15)^2+(8)^2$

Another is (8,15,17).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(4,2).

$(4^2+2^2)^2=(4^2-2^2)^2+(2\cdot4\cdot2)^2$

$(16+4)^2=(16-4)^2+(16)^2$

$(20)^2=(12)^2+(16)^2$

We have another which is (12,16,20).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(4,3).

$(4^2+3^2)^2=(4^2-3^2)^2+(2\cdot4\cdot3)^2$

$(16+9)^2=(16-9)^2+(24)^2$

$(25)^2=(7)^2+(24)^2$

We have another is (7,24,25).

You are just choosing numbers from the positive integer set {1,2,3,4,... } and making sure the number you plug in for x is higher than the number for y.

I will do one more.

Let's choose (x,y)=(5,1).

$(5^2+1^2)^2=(5^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot1)^2$

$(25+1)^2=(25-1)^2+(10)^2$

$(26)^2=(24)^2+(10)^2$

So (10,24,26) is another.

Let (x,y)=(5,2).

$(5^2+2^2)^2=(5^2-2^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot2)^2$

$(25+4)^2=(25-4)^2+(20)^2$

$(29)^2=(21)^2+(20)^2$

So another Pythagorean Triple is (20,21,29).

Choose (x,y)=(5,3).

$(5^2+3^2)^2=(5^2-3^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot3)^2$

$(25+9)^2=(25-9)^2+(30)^2$

$(34)^2=(16)^2+(30)^2$

Another Pythagorean Triple is (16,30,34).

Let (x,y)=(5,4)

$(5^2+4^2)^2=(5^2-4^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot4)^2$

$(25+16)^2=(25-16)^2+(40)^2$

$(41)^2=(9)^2+(40)^2$

Another is (9,40,41).

Write your answer as an integer or as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth.

irina [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

USing SOH CAH TOA

sin theta = opposite/hypotenuse

sin <X = WV/VX

sin <X = 8/9

<X = arcsin(8/9)

<X = arcsin(0.8889)

<X = 62.7 degrees

Hence the value of x is approximately 63degrees

the population of the state of colorado was about 5,030,000 people in 2013 which number best approximates the population as a si

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

5 • 10^6

Step-by-step explanation:

When we talk about approximations, it is important to know that their purpose is not to find the correct value, only close enough that will do the job. We use them when we want to write something in a shortened way, to save time or when it's impossible to find precise value. Of course, our approximation won't be 100% precise, but it will be acceptable.

So, in this case, we are dealing with a population that is just above five million.

Milion (1 000 000) is a seven-digit number written with six zeros, so its power of ten will be 10^6 (ten to the power of six).

Since the population is around five million, we will approximate it to

5 • 10^6 (five times ten to the power of six)

I’m assuming you mean the whole number 5.

5/1 is an improper fraction of 5. You can also use 10/2 or 15/3.
