I might be wrong but you tell me,

The father is 60 years old.

Son lives to be 60.

Total is 120.

Both die at the age of 60.

Could the son have been a newborn?

Idk. I don't understand it.

Wait,  sum of present ages is 60. The son has to be younger by at least 20. Double it again. No, even then newborn is 0 and then 60= 60. Son lives toll he's 60 and dies, 120. Sorry, I tried. What are your possible choices?

Answer: x1 = 0; x2 = 5/3; x3 = 1/3

x1 + 2x2 - x3 = 3 => 2x1 + 4x2 - 2x3 = 6

                                2x1 + x2 - 2x3 = 1

=> 4x2 - x2 = 5

⇔ 3x2 = 5

⇔ x2 = 5/3

with x2 = 5/3, we have: x1 - x3 = 3 - 10/3 = -1/3

                                        3x1 - 5x3 = 5 - 4.5/3 = -5/3

=> x1 = 0

    x3 = 1/3

The graph of f(x) = |x| is transformed to g(x) = |x + 1| – 7. On which interval is the function decreasing?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

g is decreasing for all x less than or equal to -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the function y = |x| looks like a "vee."

g(x) = |x + 1| - 7 moves that graph 1 unit to the <u>left</u><em> </em>(I know, it looks backwards!) and down 7 units. See attached image.

Function g(x) is decreasing for all x \le -1.

0.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333 simplified at a fraction
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Your original number to convert is 0.333333. Let's slide the decimal point in this number to the right 1 place(s) (the same number of digits in the number 3).

If we do this, we'll get a 3.333333 (slide the decimal in the 0.333333 right 1 places, you'll get 3.333333).

So what? Well now, we have two numbers with the same repeating decimal parts, 3.333333 and 0.333333.

Now let's just work a little algebra into all of this. Let's call your original number x. And in this case, x = 0.333333. The number with the decimal point slid over can be called 10x, because 10x = 3.333333

10x = 3.33333

-x = 0.333333\frac{10x = 3.33333  -x = 0.333333}{9x = 3}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, solving 9x=3 for x by dividing both sides of it by 9, we'll get that x=3/9. And this is your answer.

How is this your answer? Well remember that above, x was originally set equal to 0.333333 via x = 0.333333, and now we have that x is also equal to 3/9, so that means 0.333333 = 3/9..and there's 0.333333 written as a fraction.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>Simplify 3/9 into the lowest terms:</u>

\frac{1}{3}
