Answer:
The father is 35years old and the son Tom is 15years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the father's be y
Let Tom's age be T
5 years ago:
The father's age is: y — 5
Tom's age:
T— 5.
But Tom's age was one third the father's age. This is written as:
T — 5 = 1/3(y — 5)
3(T — 5) = y — 5
3T — 15 = y — 5
3T — y = — 5 + 15
3T — y = 10 (1)
In 5years time:
The father's age is:
y + 5
Tom's age:
T + 5
But in 5years time, Tom will be half as old as his father. This is written as:
T + 5 = 1/2(y + 5)
2(T + 5) = y + 5
2T + 10 = y + 5
2T — y = 5 — 10
2T — y = — 5 (2)
Therefore, the equations are
3T — y = 10 (1)
2T — y = — 5. (2)
Solving by elimination method:
Subtract equation (2) from (1)
3T — y = 10
— (2T — y = — 5)
T = 15
Substituting the value of T into equation (1)
3T — y = 10
3(15) — y = 10
45 — y = 10
45 — 10 = y
y = 35
Therefore,
The father is 35years old and the son Tom is 15years old

Answer:
Of the basketball players on the team, exactly 75% of the players have heights above 180
Step-by-step explanation:
So, they are 12 basketball players in total
1 - 170 - This is 1/12
2 - 175 - This is 1/6
1 - 180 - This is 1/12
4- 185 - This is 1/3
3 - 190 - This is 1/4
1 - 195 - This is 1/12
75% (Or 3/4) have heights above 180
Therefore, the answer is B
Answer:
The angle of intersection is equal to one-half the difference of the intercepted arcs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving to the edges it travels 2*3 + 2*2 = 10 units.
Then it moves in a circular path when it turns the 4 corners.
It goes through 90 degrees in each case - or pi/2 units
so 4 turns = 4 * pi/2 = 2 pi units
Answer is 10 + 2 pi.
Option D
