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.

Find the solutions of 6(2-7x)+x(7x-2=0)
azamat
6(2-7x)+x(7x-2)=0

Use distributive property: a(b - c) = ab - ac

(6)(2)-(6)(7x)+(x)(7x)-(x)(2)=0\\\\12-42x+7x^2-2x=0\\\\7x^2-44x+12=0\\\\7x^2-42x-2x+12=0\\\\7x(x-6)-2(x-6)=0\\\\(x-6)(7x-2)=0\iff x-6=0\ \vee\ 7x-2=0\\\\x-6=0\ \ \ |+6\\\\x=6\\\\7x-2=0\ \ \ |+2\\\\7x=2\ \ \ |:7\\\\x=\dfrac{2}{7}

Answer:\ x=6\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{2}{7}

Helpppp? pleaseeee asap
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the second choice

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Large rectangle                        Small rectangle

base = 15 ft                                 base = 11 ft

height = 13 ft                               height = 9 ft

Process

1.- Express the area of the large rectangle

Area = base x height

Substitution

Area = (15)(13)

2.- Express the area of the small rectangle

Area = (11)(9)

3.- Write the area of the shaded region

Shaded area = Area of the large rectangle - Area of the small rectangle

-Substitution

Shaded area = (15)(13) - (11)(9)

Write the standard form of an equation of an ellipse subject to the given conditions.
irina [24]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the equation of an ellipse with major axis on the y axis is given as:

\frac{(x-h)^2}{b^2} +\frac{(y-k)^2}{a^2} =1

Where (h, k) is the center of the ellipse, (h, k ± a) is the major axis, (h ± b, k) is the minor axis, (h, k ± c) is the foci and c² = a² - b²

Since the minor axis is at (37,0) and (-37,0), hence k = 0, h = 0 and b = 37

Also, the foci is at (0,5) and (0, -5), therefore c = 5

Using c² = a² - b²:

5² = a² - 37²

a² = 37² + 5² = 1369 + 25

a² = 1394

Therefore the equation of the ellipse is:

\frac{x^2}{1369}+ \frac{y^2}{1394} =1
