Mark is 15 years younger than Ashley. The sum of their ages is 55. Write a set of equations to determine Mark (M) age and Ashley

(A) age.
I need to write this as a set of equations (2 equations) with 2 variables (M and A), but it only gives me the numbers 55 and 15 and I don't know how to write it.
Please help!

The expression p/x^2 - 5x +6 simplifies to x+4/x-2. Which expression doees p represent?
gladu [14]
We know that
(ad)/(bd)=d/d time a/b=a/b since d's cancel
also
if a/b=c/d in simplest form, then a=c and b=d

we have
p/(x^2-5x+6)=(x+4)/(x-2)
therefor

p/(x^2-5x+6)=d/d times (x+4)/(x-2)
p/(x^2-5x+6)=d(x+4)/d(x-2)

therefor
p=d(x+4) and
x^2-5x+6=d(x-2)

we can solve last one
factor
(x-6)(x+1)=d(x-2)
divide both sides by (x-2)
[(x-6)(x+1)]/(x-2)=d
sub


p=d(x+4)
p=([(x-6)(x+1)]/(x-2))(x+4)
p= \frac {(x-6)(x+1)(x+4)}{(x-2)}

Proving trapezoid theorems Geometry
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

ΔABD ≅ ΔACD by SAS, therefore;

\overline {BD} \cong \overline {CA} by CPCTC

Step-by-step explanation:

The two column proof is presented as follows;

Statement {}                   Reason

ABCD is a trapezoid {}  Given

\overline {BA} \cong \overline {CD}  {}                   Given

\overline {BC} \parallel \overline {AD}   {}                   Definition of a trapezoid

ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid  {}    Left and right leg are equal

∠BAD ≅ ∠CDA  {}          Base angle of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent

\overline {AD} \cong \overline {AD}   {}                  Reflexive property

ΔABD ≅ ΔACD   {}         By SAS rule of congruency

\overline {BD} \cong \overline {CA}   {}                  CPCTC

CPCTC; Congruent Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent

SAS; Side Angle Side rule of congruency

Divide the combinations.<br><br> 60C3 / 15C3
Mariulka [41]
I hope you know what '!' means
2!=2
3!=6
4!=24
basicalkly times every natural number including and before that number


nCr=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}
so
\frac{60C3}{15C3}=
\frac{ \frac{60!}{3!(60-3)!} }{ \frac{15!}{3!(15-3)!} }=
( \frac{60!}{3!(60-3)!})(\frac{3!(15-3)!}{15!})=
( \frac{60!}{3!(57)!})(\frac{3!(12)!}{15!})=
\frac{(60!)(3!)(12!)}{(3!)(57!)(15!)}=
\frac{(60!)(12!)}{(57!)(15!)}=
\frac{(60!)}{(57!)(15)(14)(13)}=
\frac{(60)(59)(58)}{(15)(14)(13)}=
\frac{(30)(59)(58)}{(15)(7)(13)}=
\frac{(6)(59)(58)}{(3)(7)(13)}=
\frac{6844}{91}

If b is the midpoint of ac, ac=cd, ab=3x+4, ac=11x-17, and ce=49, find de
IrinaK [193]

First, we draw our line.

 

|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

a                                                                                                            e

 

 

Next, break up this line into segments using the information.

 

|----------------------|----------------------|--------------------|------------------|

a                            b                            c                         d                      e

 

 

The entire line is 29.

 

ab + bc + cd + de = ae

ab + bc + cd + de = 29

 

You also know that

 

bd = bc + cd

 

 

Due to midpoint theorem,

 

ab = bc

cd = de

 

 

Then,

 

2ab + 2cd = 29

 

 

The equations we will use are

 

bd = bc + cd                       eq1

2bc + 2cd = 29                   eq2

 

 

Dividing both sides of the equation in eq2 yields

 

bc + cd = 14.5

 

bd = bc + cd

bd = 14.5
