M=Mavis
B=Brother Age
M=B+5

Five years ago...
M-5
B-5
Since Mavis is twice her brother age you have to multiple by 2
(M-5) = 2(B-5)

Substitute M=B+5
(B+5-5) =2B-10

B=2B-10

-B=10
10+5=15

Mavis is 15
Brother is 10

Is -3 a natural number a whole number a integer a rational number or irrational number
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

-3 is a rational integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

An integer is a superset of the whole numbers that includes the negated values as well as 0.

A rational number is simply anything that can be expressed as a fraction.

-3 is by these definitions, a negated 3, and any non fractional number can be expressed as a fraction.

-3 is not a natural number, as that is the set of numbers {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... etc} and -3 is not a whole number, as that is the set of numbers {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... etc}.

And -3 is also not an irrational number since it can be expressed as a fraction.

Thus, -3 is a rational integer.

Cheers.

Insert parenthesis () to make the following problem true: 3+6-2x4=19
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

3+(6-2)*4=19

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to PEMDAS, it would first be required to do "6-2", which is 4.

Then, the 4 in the parenthesis is multiplied by the 4 on the outside, making 16.

Finally, 3 would be added to 16, making 19.

What is the difference between a day and a line segment
zepelin [54]

Hello!

I do believe you meant to say:

"What is the difference between a <em>ray</em> and a line segment?"

The difference between a ray and a line segment is:

A ray has one endpoint and continues in one direction. a ray is infinite

A line segment has two endpoints. a line segment is finite

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
