Answer:

Explanation:

Let John be x years old.

Michael is x+17 years old.

In four years time, the sum of their ages will be 49:

x+x+17+2(4)=49

2x=24

x=12

So Michael is 12+17=29 years old now.

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

60.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Cosines can help you figure this out. Call the given sides "a" and "b" and the given angle "C". Then the third side, "c" will satisfy the relation ...

c² = a² + b² -2ab·cos(C)

= 33² +37² -2·33·37·cos(120°) = 3679

c = √3679 ≈ 60.65476 ≈ 60.65

The length of the third side is about 60.65 units.
