Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of ages= 40

Let the sons age be x

Fathers age = 3 times x or ,3x

So 3x+x=40

4x= 40

x= 40/4

= 10

Therefore the fathers age = 3x

= 3*10

= 30

M=p/n+4 make n the subject

Kipish [7]

Answer:

$n = \frac {p - 4m}{m}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the algebraic expression;

$m = \frac {p}{n + 4}$

To make n the subject of formula.

Cross-multiplying, we have;

$m*(n+4) = p$

$mn + 4m = p$

Rearranging the equation, we have;

$mn = p - 4m$

$n = \frac {p - 4m}{m}$

City planners are planning to build a new community pool. They agree that the pool will be rectangular in shape, but the propose

kobusy [5.1K]

The equation that can be used to determine the original length of the pool is 205.85 = 11.6(l + 3.7)

Let l be the original length of the pool.

Since the length of the pool is increased by 3.7 m, the new length L = l + 3.7.

Also, the area of the pool A = 205.85 square meter and it is a rectangle with width, W = 11.6 meters,

So, A = LW

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

A = LW

205.85 = (l + 3.7)11.6

So, the equation that can be used to determine the original length of the pool is 205.85 = 11.6(l + 3.7)
