Answer:
NO this set is not equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay the way you find out if a pair of ratios are equal is you would divide the denominator and nominator with each other, so: 13/7 and 9/4. But sense the answer would be in decimal form and cant be simplified this wouldnt be considered equivalent. Also if you divide 7 by 4 you get a different answer than when you do 13 divided 9.
We need to multiply the factors (x - 2) and (x^2 + 9x + 10) to see if the product is the original expression given.
(x - 2)(x^2 + 9x + 10)
x^3 + 9x^2 + 10x - 2x^2 - 18x - 20
x^3 + 7x^2 - 8x - 20.
Since the product just found is not the original expression given, Jimmy is wrong.
I will complete the work on paper by synthetic division and post my answer.
After using synthetic division, the correct quotient is x^2 + 9x + 20.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/10 * 1/4 = 1/14
1/2 because there is a 50/50% chance its either heads or tails
50% chance

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we are going to make an age table:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya
Elliot
Filling the in the Age Now column comes from the first sentence. If Elliot is 2 times Tanya's age and we don't know Tanya's age, then Tanya's age is x and Elliot's age is 2x:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya x
Elliot 2x
Filling in the Age 10 years ago column simply requires that we take their ages in the Age Now column and subtract 10 from each age:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya x x - 10
Elliot 2x 2x - 10
Since the question is How old is Elliot now based on the fact that 10 years ago....blah, blah, blah, we are using the ages in the 10 years ago column to write our equation. It says:
10 years ago, Elliot was 4 times as old as Tanya. Translated into mathspeak:
2x - 10 = 4(x - 10) and
2x - 10 = 4x - 40 and
-2x = -30 so
x = 15. That means that Elliot is 30 and Tanya is 15
