Answer:

18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Nick age is x years and Harry's age is y years.

Hence, we have the equation

x = 7y  ......(1)

After six years, Nick's age is (x+6) and Harry's age is (y+6)

Hence, we have

x+6=5(y+6)\\x+6=5y+30

Plugging x = 7y, we get

7y+6=5y+30\\2y=24\\y=12

Hence, from equation (1)

x = 7(12)

x =84

In 6 years, Harry will be of 12 + 6 =18 years.

X = Harry's Age

Nick's age is 7x 

In 6 years Harry is 7x+6, and Nick is 5(x+6)

7x+6=5x+30

2x+6=30

2x = 24

x = 12

Harry = 12 years old and in 6 years Harry will be 18.

What is the median of the data below?<br><br> 45, 19, 23, 67, 28, 35, 46, 21, 58, 60, 23, 51
VLD [36.1K]
To find the median, you will need to list the data from least to greatest and find the middle number.

19, 21, 23, 23, 28, 35, 45, 46, 51, 58, 60, 67

Cross out a number on both sides until you reach the middle number. In this case, we are left with 2 numbers that are in the middle since there is an even amount of numbers. 

When you reach the time where you have two middle numbers, we have to find the average of those two numbers. Our two middle numbers are 35 and 45. Since we have to find the average of those two numbers, we can add them. (35 + 45 = 80). Now, since we have two middle numbers, we have to divide them by 2. 
80 \div 2 = 40

Answer: \fbox {Median = 40}

What is a rational number?
MAVERICK [17]

In mathematics, a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. Since q may be equal to 1, every integer is a rational number.

Find the measure of the arc or angle indicated. Part 1. NO LINKS.​
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

O = center of circle (origin)

we know that the angle at the center of the circle ∠ ROS will be

180= 2(31) + ∠x

180-62 = ∠x

118° = ∠x

The supplemental angle to the 118° will be 62°

62° is the interior angle to  arc QR , so

arc QR is also 62°

3)

b/c the intercepted arc YZ = 2* 68=136

then 136+125+? = 360

? = 99°

arc ZX = 99°

5)

O= center point

we are given the two arcs  120 and 70 for both of these we know that the

interior angles will be the same.  ∠JOX  has a central angle of 120 , then

b/c triangle JOX is an isosceles,  we know that the two angles J and X of

the triangle JOX will be 1/2 of  60 , or 30 each

also for    

also ∠XOY has an interior angle of 70 so the two angle at X and Y will be 1/2 of 110 , or 55°

now add 55+30 to find X for box XYZJ

85° = ∠X
