Bethany, Lauren, Amanda, and David all meet at a family reunion. They are comparing their ages. They have found that Lauren is 1

3 years older than Bethany and David is 11 years older than Amanda. They also found that the product of Bethany's and Lauren's ages is equal to twice Amanda's age. Also, if they subtract 20 years from both Bethany's and Lauren's age, the product is equal to David's age.

As stated in the question 
Bethany - x
Amanda - y
the relationships are 
Lauren is 13 years older than Bethany 
Laurens age = x + 13
David is 11 years older than Amanda 
Davids age = y + 11
product of Bethany's and Laurens ages equal to twice Amandas age 
x * (x+13) = 2y
x² + 13x = 2y
divide all by 2
x²/2 + 13/2x = y
if they subtract 20 from Bethany and Laurens, then product is equal to Davids age
(x-20)(x+13-20) = y +11
(x-20)(x-7) = y+11
x² -7x -20x+140 = y+11
x² -27x +129 = y

the 2 equations to determine the relationships are 
y = x²/2 + 13/2x 
y = x² -27x +129
the first option is correct

Find a number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The number is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite ?

Solution :

Let the number be 'x'.

It's opposite is '-x'.

A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite

i.e. x - 12 = 3(-x)

Solving the equation,

x-12=-3x

x+3x=12

4x=12

x=\frac{12}{4}

x=3

Therefore, the number is 3.

Aisha made bracelets for a craft fair. She spent $29.75 on supplies to make the bracelets. Each bracelet cost her about $0.85 to
Alchen [17]

Amount of money Aisha receive from selling all of the bracelets is $33.25.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In this question, its given that Aisha made bracelets for a craft fair. She spent $29.75 on supplies to make the bracelets. Each bracelet cost her about $0.85 to make. Aisha sells each bracelet for $0.10 more than it cost her to make. Let's calculate Number of bracelets Aisha made as \frac{total-cost}{cost-of-one-bracelet}.

Number  = \frac{total-cost}{cost-of-one-bracelet}

⇒ Number  = \frac{total-cost}{cost-of-one-bracelet}

⇒ Number  = \frac{29.75}{0.85}

⇒ Number  = 35

Now , its given that Aisha sell these bracelets with $0.10 more then it cost her i.e. at $0.95 , Let's calculate selling price as :

Price = 0.95(35)

Price = $33.25

Therefore, amount of money Aisha receive from selling all of the bracelets is $33.25.
