You need to set up a direct proportion. You have to relate Keith and Jared's ages to the ratio you were given.

Givens
Keith is 24
Keith / Jared = 3/5
J = Jared 

Solution
3/5 = 24 / J Cross multiply
3*J = 5 * 24 Combine factors on the right.
3J = 120     Divide by 3
J = 120 / 3
J = 40

Conclusion
Jared is 40 years old.

Factorise the following quadratic equations ​
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

In 13 - 17

Consider the factors of the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

13

x² - x - 42 = (x - 7)(x + 6)

15

x² + x - 6 = (x + 3)(x - 2)

17

x² - 27x + 50 = (x - 25)(x - 2)

19

r² - 25 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , thus

r² - 25

= r² - 5² = (r - 5)(r + 5)

the perimeter of a rectangular field is 346 yards if the length of the field is 92 yards what is its width
Maslowich

the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is

P= 2(L+W)

with L representing length and W representing width

since we have the perimeter and the length, we can plug the values into the equation to find W

346 = 2(92+w)

346 = 184 + 2W

162 = 2W

81 = W

the width of the field is 81 yards.

hope this helped!
