A mother's age is three less than three times her daughter's age. The sum of their ages is 45. What is the daughter's age?

1 answer:

6 0

Given:
mother's age = 3x - 3
daughter's age = x
total of their ages = 45

Mother's age + daughter's age = 45
3x - 3 + x = 45
4x = 45 + 3
4x = 48
4x/4 = 48/4
x = 12 daughter's age. CHOICE B.

mother's age : 3x - 3 = 3(12) - 3 = 36 - 3 = 33

To check:
mother's age + daughter's age = 45
33 + 12 = 45
45 = 45

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If a point (x, y) is rotated 90° counterclockwise about the origin, rule for the rotation will be,

(x, y) → (-y, x)

Therefore, coordinates of the image point after the rotation will be (-y, x).

Following this rule,

Image points of the quadrilateral will be,

A(3, 3) → A'(-3, 3)

R(5, 7) → R'(-7, 5)

M(7, 5) → M'(-5, 7)

Y(5, 1) → Y'(-1, 5)

By graphing the image points we can get the graph of the image quadrilateral A'R'M'Y'.
