Answer: Angie = 6, Jemma = 18

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent the current age of Angie

              Current Age           Age 5 years from now

Angie:            x                              x + 5

Jemma:        3x                            3x + 5

5 years from now the sum of their ages is 34

                  (x + 5) + (3x + 5) = 34

                               4x + 10 = 34

                               4x        = 24

                                 x         = 6

Angle's current age is x = 6

Jemma's current age is 3x = 3(6) = 18

Answer: Angie is 6 years and Jemma is 18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jemma'a age be J and Angie's be A.

Then:

J = 3A .................................. Equation 1

Five years from now , Jemma will be J+5 years and Angie will be A+5 years.

That is :

J+5+A+5 = 34

Re arranging we have:

J +A+10 = 34

subtract 10 from both sides

J+A = 24............................ Equation 2

recall that  J=3A

Substitute  J = 3A  into equation 2 , then we have:

3A + A = 24

4A = 24

divide through by 4

A = 6

substitute A = 6 into equation 1 , we have

J = 3(6)

J = 18

Therefore :

Angie is 6 years and Jemma is 18 years

If sin(x) = squareroot 2 over 2 what is cos(x) and tan(x)
Bumek [7]

Answer:

cos(x) = square root 2 over 2; tan(x) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}

was, before it was rationalized,

\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }

Therefore,

sin(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }

The side opposite the reference angle measures 1, the hypotenuse measures square root 2.  That makes the reference angle a 45 degree angle.  From there we can determine that the side adjacent to the reference angle also has a measure of 1.  Therefore,

cos(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} and

since tangent is side opposite (1) over side adjacent (1),

tan(x) = 1

An archery target consists of a circular bull's-eye with radius x, surrounded by four rings with width y. What is the area of th
amid [387]
<span>given:
   bull's eye radius= x
 width of surrounding rings=y

   solution:
   Radius of the circle=x+4y
Area of the outermost ring=Area of the circle-Area of the penultimate ring =Ď€(x+4y)^2-Ď€(x+3y)^2
=Ď€(x^2+8xy+16y^2-x^2-9y^2-6xy)
 =Ď€(2xy+7y^2)
 hence the area of the outermost ring in terms of x and y is Ď€(2xy+7y^2).</span>
