Hello Kiddo. 

This question is a bit confusing to me, but I think I grasped the concept. 
1. x best represents Sarah's mom's age. 
2. x - 24 best represents Sarah's mom's age minus how much younger Sarah is than her mom. 
3. The expression would look a little like this:
2x-24 = 68
    + 24  +24
2x = 92 
/2     /2
x = 46.

Which means, Sarah is 22 and her mom is 46 years of age. 
If you need more clarification, I'd be more than happy to elaborate further.

William, his brother, and their 3 sisters won of the science fair prize money. What fraction of the prize
frozen [14]

Answer:

1/5 of the prize money each

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 5 siblings and the money is being distributed equally between the five of them, each sibling would get 1/5 of the prize money.

To understand this lets think of the prize as 1 whole. If we divided 1 whole into 5 equal parts, each part would be 1/5, or you can think of it as "1 out of 5".

The equation for the cost in dollars of producing computer chips is y =.000015x^2-.03x+35. Where x is the number of chips produc
Anna35 [415]
In order to find the number of chips that would result in the minimum cost, we take the first derivative of the given equation. Note that the derivative refers to the slope of the graph at a given point. We can utilize this concept knowing that at the minimum or maximum point of a graph, the slope is zero. 

Taking the derivative of the given equation and equating it to zero, we have:

y' = (0.000015)(2)x - (0.03)x° + 0
0 = (0.00003)x - 0.03

Solving for x or the number of chips produced, we have x = 1000. We then substitute this value in the given equation, such that,

y = (0.000015)(1000)² - (0.03)(1000) + 35

The minimized cost, y, to produce 1000 chips is then calculated to be $20.
