Answer:

M=9

EXPLANATION:

Let R represent Ronald’s present age. Let M represent Miley’s present age. Three years from now, Ronald and Miley will be R+3 and M+3 years old, respectively.

Your assertion “Three years from now, Ron’s age will be 2 times that of Miley's” can be written as

R + 3 = 2*(M + 3)

Similarly, your assertion “Three years ago, Ron's age was 3 times that of Miley's” can be written as

R - 3 = 3*(M-3)

We can add the left side of these equations together, and also the right side of these equations together, and obtain a new equation …

R + 3 + R - 3 = 2*(M + 3) + 3*(M - 3) = 2M + 6 + 3M - 9 = 5M - 3

This can be simplified to

2R = 5M - 3

We can divide both sides of the last equation by 2, and obtain ..

(2/2) * R = (5/2) * M - 3/2, or R = (5/2) * M - 3/2.

Now we can “plug in” the last equation into either of our first two equations of this post, and solve for M.

Using the first equation, we have

(5/2) * M - 3/2 + 3 = 2 *(M + 3) = 2M + 6

We now have

(5/2) * M + 3/2 = 2M + 6

The left side of this equation can be rewritten as

(5M + 3) / 2, so we obtain

(5M + 3) / 2 = 2M + 6

Multiplying both sides by 2, we have

5M + 3 = 4M + 12

Subtracting 4M and 3 from both sides, we obtain

M = 9

Miley’s present age is 9.

Which expression represents a number that is four times as large as the sum of 8 and 160?
DedPeter [7]
ANSWER: x = 4 ( 8 + 160 )

STEP BY STEP:

Let's start by getting a variable to represent the number. Let's use x. ⇩

x=

Now we know that there is a sum of 8 and 160. Let's add them to each other ⇩

x= 8 + 160

Now we know that this will be multiplied. Let's put parentheses around the addition to symbolize this.

X= (8 + 160)

Finally multiply this by four, making your equation

x= 4 (8 + 160)

I don't know the options but from looking at the problem I'm assuming the answer is
x = 4 ( 8 + 160 )

Identify the surface with the given vector equation. r(s, t) = s sin 4t, s2, s cos 4t
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Circular paraboloid

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ,

r(s,t)=ssin4t,s^2,scos4t

Here, these are the respective x,y,z axes components.

  • <em>Component along x axis r_i : ssin4t</em>
  • <em>Component along y axis r_j : s^2</em>
  • <em>Component along z axis r_k : scos4t</em>

We see that , from the parameterised equation , r_i^2+r_k^2=s^2sin^24t+s^2cos^24t\\r_i^2+r_k^2=s^2\\r_i^2+r_k^2=r_j

This can also be written as :

x^2+z^2=y

This is similar to an equation of a parabola in 1 Dimension.

By fixing the value of z=0,

<u><em>We get y=x^2 which is equation of a parabola curving towards the positive infinity of y-axis and in the x-y plane.</em></u>

By fixing the value of x=0,

<u><em>We get y=z^2 which is equation of a parabola curving towards positive infinity of y-axis and in the y-z plane. </em></u>

Thus by fixing the values of x and z alternatively ,  we get a <u>CIRCULAR PARABOLOID. </u>

What is the sum or difference?
dlinn [17]
1. Ans: Option (B) -6x^4

Explanation:
Given: 2x^4 - 8x^4
Take the common out:
=> x^4(2 - 8)

Hence: => [tex]-6x^4[/tex] (Option B)

2. Ans: Option (D) -3y^5

Explanation:
Given: 6y^5 - 9y^5
Take the common term(s) out:
=> y^5(6-9)

Hence: => -3y^5 (Option D)

3. Ans: Option (B) 9x^2 - 12x + 6<span> quadratic trinomial 

Explanation:
</span>Given: 6 - 12x + 13x^2 - 4x^2

The standard form of polynomial function must have the highest powered value at the start, then the second highest and so on.

=> 
13x^2 - 4x^2 - 12x + 6
=> 9x^2 - 12x + 6 (Option B)

4. Ans: Option (C) 7.3x^2 + 0.8x + 1.3

Explanation:
In order to find the total number of C<span>ommon and Endler's guppies, you need to add both Common and Endler's guppies' polynomials, as follows:

</span>Common guppies: 3.1x^2 +6.0x + 0.3<span>
Endler's guppies:   </span>4.2x^2 - 5.2x + 1.0
(add both)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Total number:          7.3x^2 +0.8x + 1.3
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Hence the ans is Option(C) 7.3x^2 + 0.8x + 1.3

5. Ans: Option (D) 2x^2(133 - 18 \pi )

Explanation:
First let's find the total area of the yard:
Total Area of the Yard = 14x * 19x = 266x^2

Now the area of the circular fountain:
Area of the Circular Fountain = \pi r^2
Since, r=6x
Therefore,
Area of the Circular Fountain = \pi (6x)^2 = 36 \pi x^2

Now the final Area of the yard would be:
Final area of the Yard = Total Area of the Yard - Area of the Circular Fountain
Final area of the Yard = 266x^2 - 36 \pi x^2
=> Final area of the Yard = 2x^2(133 - 18 \pi) (Option D)

6. Ans: Option (A) 56x^2

Explanation:
First let's find the total area of the lot:
Total Area of the lot= 6x * 10x = 60x^2

Now the area of the stadium:
Area of the stadium = 1x * 4x = 4x^2

Now the final Area of the lot would be:
Final area of the lot= Total Area of the lot - Area of the stadium
Final area of the lot= 60x^2 - 4x^2
=> Final area of the lot = 56x^2 (Option A)
