Answer:
Alicia is 18years
Quentin is 14years
Rosalyn is 16years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Alicia be x
Let the age of Quentin be y
Let the age of Rosalyn be z
If the sum of the siblings’ ages, in years, is 48 then;
x+y+z = 48.... 1
If Rosalyn is two years older than Quentin then;
z =y+2 ..... 2
Also if Quentin is four years younger than Alicia then;
y = x-4 ... 3
From 3:
x = y+4 ... 4
Substitute 2 and 4 into 1 to have:
y+4+y+y+2 = 48
3y + 6= 48
3y = 48-6
3y= 42
y = 14
Since x= y+4
x = 14+4
x = 18
Since z = y+2
z = 14+2
z = 16year
This means that;
Alicia is 18years
Quentin is 14years
Rosalyn is 16years
It would be 5sqrt2
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 5^2 = c^2
25 + 25 = c^2
50 = c^2
c = sqrt 50
c = 5sqrt2
Answer:
It is the 2nd option
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 4y to both sides of the equation:
x=4y-22
Now replace x in the equation:
(4y-22)-4y=-22
Distribute the negative sign:
-4y+22-4y=-22
Add common terms:
-8y+22=-22
Add 8y to both sides of the equation:
8y-22=22
Add 22 to both sides of the equation:
8y=44
Divide both sides by 8:
y=5.5
