Answer:

The correct answer is:

(7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52, or 8s+4 = 52.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since s is the son's age, "two less than seven times" the son's age would be represented by 7s-2. To represent this in 3 years, we would add 3: (7s-2)+3. In 3 years, the son's age, s, would be represented by s+3. We are told that the sum of these ages will be 52; this gives us (7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52.

To simplify this, combine like terms. 7s+s = 8s; -2+3+3 = 4. This gives us 8s+4=52.

Rudiy27

Answer:

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

s = \frac{d}{t}

In which s is the speed, in miles per hour, d is the distance, in miles, and t is the time, in hours.

We have that:

At speed s, she takes two hours to drive. So

s = \frac{d}{2}

d = 2s

However, on one particular trip, after 40% of the drive, she had to reduce her speed by 30 miles per hour, driving at this slower speed for the rest of the trip. This particular trip took her 228 minutes.

228 minutes is 3.8 hours. So

0.4s + 0.6(s - 30) = \frac{d}{3.8}

So

3.8(0.4s + 0.6s - 18) = d

3.8s - 68.4 = 2s

1.8s = 68.4

s = 38

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.

Find z of the diagonal triangle. <br> Also, complete b.
STatiana [176]

Answer:

x = 30.91 cm , y = 29,86 cm and z = 39.30 cm.

Total area of wood = 2942.54 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

sin 15 =8/x

x = 8 / sin 15

x = 30.91 cm.

and

tan 15 = 8/y

y = 8 / tan 15

= 29.86 cm.

The value of z can be found using the Pythagoras theorem:

50^2 = x^2 + z^2

z^2 =  20^2 - x^2 = 50^2 - 30.91^2

z^2 = 1554.57

z = √1554.57

=  39.30 cm.

b.  The area consists of 3 rectangles :- 1. sides x and z  2. sides z and 8 and the other has sides z and y. Also 2 triangles of height 8 and base length y cm.

Total area = 30.91  * 39.30 + 8 * 39.30 + 29.86 * 39.30 + 2 * 0.5 * 8 * 29.86

=  2942.54 cm^2.
