Jody’s older brother is only three years less than twice jody’s age. If the sum of their ages is 30, then which of the following

is the age of jody’s brother
Mathematics

liq [111]3 years ago

Answer:

Let Jody's Age be X

Then Jody's Brother age is: 2x - 3

Total is: (2x - 3) + x = 30

Now we solve for x

2x - 3+ x = 30

3x - 3 = 30

3x = 30 + 3

3x = 33

x = 33/3

x = 11

Therefore the age of Jody's Brother is (2×11) - 3 = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Chanel

(i) 90° counterclockwise and then dilation by a factor of 1/2

Trapezoid PQRS is given as :

P(6,-4) -------P'(4,6)

Q(2,-2)------Q'(2,2)

R(2,-6)-------R'(6,2)

S(6,-6)-------S'(6,6)

The transformation switches the position of (x,y) to and adds a -ve sign to the original y value

B. The new coordinates are : P'(4,6), Q'(2,2),R'(6,2) and S'(6,6)

The  rule for rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin is (x,y)⇒(-y,x)

The rule for dilation with scale factor of 1/2 is (x,y)------(1/2x,1/2y)

P'(4,6) -----P''(2,3)

Q'(2,2)-----Q''(1,1)

R'(6,2)-----R''(3,1)

S'( 6,6)-----S''(3,3)

The dilation reduces the coordinates by 1/2

Preston

E. (i)Reflection over x-axis where the rule is : (x,y)----(x,-y)

(ii)Dilation by scale factor of 1/2 the rule is : (x,y)---(1/2x, 1/2y)

Applying reflection over x-axis rule;

P(6,-4) -----P'(6,4)

Q(2,-2)-----Q'(2,2)

R(2,-6)------R'(2,6)

S(6,-6)------S'(6,6)

The coordinates have changed in that a negative sign is added to the y-axis coordinate.

F. P'(6,4), Q'(2,2), R'(2,6) and S'(6,6)

G. Applying the dilation by scale factor of 1/2

P'(6,4)-------P''(3,2)

Q'(2,2)------Q''(1,1)

R'(2,6)------R''(1,3)

S'(6,6)------S''(3,3)

The coordinates of P'Q'R'S are divide by 2 to give coordinates of P''Q''R''S''

Comparing the answers to the final figure given

K(3,2)

L(1,1)

M(1,3)

N(3,3)

Preston is correct because his sequence proves trapezoid PQRS is similar to trapezoid KLMN.

On a coordinate plane, a curved line with a minimum value of (negative 1, negative 2), crosses the x-axis at (negative 2, 0) and
Oduvanchick [21]

Given:

A curved line with a minimum value of (-1,-2), crosses the x-axis at (-2, 0) and the y-axis at (0, 0).

To find:

x-intercepts of the function.

Solution:

The curved line passes through the points (-1,-2), (-2,0) and (0,0).

We know that, y-coordinate is zero at x-intercepts.

From the given points, only (-2,0) and (0,0) have 0 as y-coordinate.

So, x-intercepts of the function are (-2,0) and (0,0).

Therefore, the correct options are 1 and 3.

Find the difference between 1/6 and 1/2
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

1/3 OR -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 - 1/6 = ?

3/6 - 1/6 = 2/6

2/6 = 1/3

OR

1/6 -1/2 =?

1/6 - 3/6 = -2/6

-2/6 = -1/3
