My mum was 27 when I was born.
(2) now-8. x-8. y-8
(3) now. x y
(4) now+5. x+5. y+5

(1)&(3). y-x = 27-0 = 27

8 years ago she was twice as old as I shall be in 5 years time.
(2)&(4). y-8 = 2(x+5)

2 variables 2 equations ... solve x
x = 9, y = 36

Find the length of the indicated side.
Ne4ueva [31]

Hello

DEF and IKL , equilateral  =>

DE = 5x-12 = 3x-4

5x-3x= -4+12

2x= 8

x=4

DE = 5x-12 =  20-12 = 8

KL = 3x+24 = 10x+3

24 -3 = 10x-3x

21 = 7x

x= 21/7 = 3

KJ = 10x+3 = 30+3 = 33

Evaluate the expression:<br><br> x^2+2x−xy when x = 250 and y = −120
NikAS [45]

Answer:

33000

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting 250 for x and -120 for y, we get:

(250)^2 + 2(250) - (250)(120)  =  62500 + 500 - 30000, or

32500 + 500, or 33000
