A.
Let x = age of Samantha.
Then x - 2 = age of Emily,
and x + 2 = age of Lauren.

b.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42

c.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42

3x = 42

x = 14

x - 2 = 14 - 2 = 12

x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16

The ages of the sisters are 12, 14, 16.

The solution to the quadratic equation 3x² + 8x - 10 by using the quadratic formula is x = 0.927 or -3.594

<h3>Solving quadratic equations.</h3>

Quadratic equations are algebraic expressions that are represented in the power of the second degree. They usually take the form ax² + bx + c

From the given information, we are to solve the quadratic equation:

  • 3x² + 8x - 10

Using the quadratic formula:

\mathbf{=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}}

where:

  • a = 3
  • b = + 8
  • c = - 10

\mathbf{= \dfrac{-(8)) \pm \sqrt{(8)^2 - 4(3 \times (-10))}}{2(3)}}

\mathbf{= \dfrac{-(8)) \pm \sqrt{64 -4 (-30)}}{6}}

\mathbf{= \dfrac{-(8)) \pm \sqrt{64+120}}{6}}

x = 0.927 or -3.594

Bill changes £450 from his bank and gets $729.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Bill got more ($1.62) for each pound exchanged than did Gwyll ($1.56).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the unit rate in each case, that is, the number of dollars obtained through exchanging one (1) pound for dollars:

Bill:

$729

--------- = $1.62 per pound

£450

Gwyll:

$780

---------- = $1.56 per pound

 £500

Bill got more ($1.62) for each pound exchanged than did Gwyll ($1.56).

Find the perimeter of the shape below:
DedPeter [7]
I see 3 right triangles.

Right triangle: a² + b² = c²
a = long leg ; b = short leg ; c = hypotenuse
hypotenuse = EH
a = 6 - 3 = 3
b = 3 - 1 = 2
c² = 3² + 2²
c² = 9 + 4
c² = 11
c = √11
c = 3.32

hypotenuse = FG
a = 3 ; b = 1
c² = 3² + 1²
c² = 9 + 1
c² = 10
c = √10
c = 3.16

hypotenuse = EF
a = 3 ; b = 2
c² = 3² + 2²
c² = 9 + 4
c² = 11
c = √11
c = 3.32

perimeter = 3.32 + 3.16 + 3.32 + 2 = 11.8
