Answer:
Jane: 37 years old
Anne: 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Jane 12 years ago: 5x
Anne 12 years ago: x
In three years into the future:
Jane: 5x+15
Anne: x+15
CURRENT TIME:
Jane: 5x+12
Anne: x+12
Equation (using 3 years into the future ages): 5x+15=2(x+15)
5x+15=2x+30
(subtract 15 from both sides)
5x=2x+15
3x=15
x=5
Therefore, Jane is 37 years old and Anne is 17 years old.
Answer- A-16
Because when doing completing the square, you divide the coefficient of x by 2, which is 4, and the square it which is 16
Answer:
7.41, 7.6, 745
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A lily costs $7 and a geranium $4.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we can write two equations. let the number of lilies be l and the number of geraniums be g, then:
5
g
+
4
l
=
48
4
g
+
6
l
=
58
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5, the number of lilies in the other gives:
20
g
+
16
l
=
192
20
g
+
30
l
=
290
Subtract the first equation from the second gives:
14
l
=
98 which dividing by 14 gives l
=
7
Substituting the value l
=
7 in the first equation gives:
5
g
+
28
=
48
Subtract 20 from both sides gives:
5
g
=
20 divide by 5 gives g
=
4
So, a lily costs $7 and a geranium costs $4.
500=140+40h
minus 140 both sides
360=40h
divide y 40
9=h
