Two times antonio's age plus three times Sarah's age equals 34. Sarah age is also five times antonio's age . How old is Sarah?

1 answer:

6 0

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.

144=(x+7)^2 take the square root of both sides...

12=x+7 subtract 7 from both sides...

x=5

So the original was a 5m square.

255=WL and you are told that W=L+2 so the equation becomes:

255=(L+2)L

255=L^2+2L

L^2+2L-255=0

L^2+17L-15L-255=0

L(L+17)-15(L+17)=0

(L-15)(L+17)=0 Since L>0...

L=15yd, and since W=L+2, W=17yd so

length=15, width=17yd
