Let Sarah's age be s and Antonio's age be a.

According to your question,

2a + 3s = 34
s = 5a

substituting the value of s in eq. 1,

2a + 3(5a) = 34

= 2a + 15 a = 34

17a = 34

thus, a = 34/17 = 2

substituting the value of a is s,

s = 5(2)
= 10

Thus, Sarah's age is 10 years and Antonio's age is 2 years.

Question 4 <br> Use the figure below to find the value of x and y
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

x=4, y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the value of y

we know that

In the right triangle of the figure

cos(30\°)=\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{y}

Remember that

cos(30\°)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

so

\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{y}

Simplify

y=8\ units

step 2

Find the value of x

In the right triangle of the figure

sin(30\°)=\frac{x}{8}

Remember that

sin(30\°)=\frac{1}{2}

so

\frac{1}{2}=\frac{x}{8}

x=4\ units

15 decreased by twice a number x in algebriac expression
postnew [5]
2x - 15

15 is decreased that is the key word here which indicates subtraction.

twice a number with given variable x is 2x

subtraction always goes behind so 2x - 15
