Let h = Hannah's age.

Hannah is older than her sibling, and their ages are consecutive odd integers. Therefore, h = an odd number and the sibling's age =  h-2.
 
The sum of their ages is 92, therefore
h + (h-2) = 92
2h - 2 = 92

2h = 94
h = 47 years

Answer:
The equation to find Hannah's age is  2h - 2 = 92.
This yields Hannah's age as 47 years.

kirill [66]

Answer:

A.) A person weights 80 kg can consume Haddock fish = 149 grams

B.) A person weights 80 kg can consume Swordfish fish = 8 grams

C.) A person weights 80 kg can consume Tuna fish = 23 grams

D.) A person weights 80 kg can consume Snapper fish = 50 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Mercury is a naturally occurring metal that can be harmful to humans. The current recommendation is for humans to take in no more than 0.1 microgram for every kilogram of their weight per day. Fish generally carry high levels of mercury, although certain fish have higher mercury content than others. Fish, however, are healthy sources of many other nutrients, so nutritionists recommend keeping them in the human diet. The figure below shows the average mercury content of several types of fish.

To find - If a person weighs 82 kg, how much of each fish can they safely consume? round to the nearest gram.

A.Haddock

B.Swordfish

C.Tuna

D.Snapper​

Proof -

Firstly, determine how many micro grams of mercury a person can consume who weighs 82 kilograms.

⇒82 × 0.1 =  8.2 micro grams.

Now,

a.)

For Haddock fish-

It consumes 0.055 micro grams of mercury

So,

A person can consume fish = 8.2 ÷ 0.055

                                              = 149.09 ≈ 149 grams

So,

A person weights 80 kg can consume Haddock fish = 149 grams

b.)

For Swordfish fish-

It consumes 0.995 micro grams of mercury

So,

A person can consume fish = 8.2 ÷ 0.995

                                              = 8.24 ≈ 8 grams

So,

A person weights 80 kg can consume Swordfish fish = 8 grams

c.)

For Tuna fish-

It consumes 0.350 micro grams of mercury

So,

A person can consume fish = 8.2 ÷ 0.350

                                              = 23.43 ≈ 23 grams

So,

A person weights 80 kg can consume Tuna fish = 23 grams

d.)

For Snapper fish-

It consumes 0.165 micro grams of mercury

So,

A person can consume fish = 8.2 ÷ 0.165

                                              = 49.697 ≈ 50 grams

So,

A person weights 80 kg can consume Snapper fish = 50 grams

Stolb23 [73]
Trains depart after every 4 minutes.
Total time train takes to complete a circuit= 24 minutes
Evan sets off at 8:30 am, so  he will be back at 8:54 am.
So time of trains coming in opposite direction:
8: 34 am
8:38 am
8:42 am
8:46 am
and 8:50 am
5 trains coming in opposite directions.
Now the trains started at 8:06 am from the stations are:
8:06 am
8:10 am
8:14 am
8:18 am
8:22 am
and 8:26 am.
So there are 6 trains started the circuit at 8:06 am.

Now total number of trains=6+5=11 trains

Answer: 11 trains will pass on complete circuit.
