-3 because 1/2(0) is 0 then you subtract 3
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Ama's sister is 12 now and Ama is 8. 8/12 simplified is 2/3.
Four years ago Ama's would have been 4 and her sister would have been 8. 4/8 simplified is 1/2.
The equations:
(Ama is a)
(Ama's sister is s)
a = (2/3)s
a - 4 = (1/2)(s - 4)
Step one:
You would substitute the first equation into the second equation to get
(2/3)s - 4 = (1/2)(s - 4)
Step two:
Multiply by 6 to get rid of the fractions to get
4s - 24 = 3(s - 4)
Step three:
Simplify to get
4s - 24 = 3s - 12
Step four:
Subtract 3s and add 24 to get
s = 12
Step five:
Input the s value into the first equation to get
a = (2/3)(12) = 8

The correct answer is one
good luck in math
(3a^4 * b^-2) * (2a^7 * b^-1)
= 6*a^(4+7)*b^(-2-1)
= 6*a^11*b^-3
3x8+4 because 3 times so that is 3 x the sum of 8 and 4 so 8+4 together it would be 3x8+4
