Answer: 43.2 inches


Explanation:

Find the ratio of the lengths. Then apply it on the width to find the missing width.


Length 1 : Length 2

=   25 : 60

=    5   :  12


Width 1 : Width 2

=     18   : x


x = 18 ÷ 5 x 12 = 43.2 inches

A father’s age now is three times the age that his son was 4 years ago. In
Mice21 [21]
Let ‘s’ be the son’s age 12 years ago.
Let ‘f’ be the father’s current age.

4 years ago, the son was:

s-4

So, his father is currently:

3(s-4)

=

3s-12

Therefore:

f = 3s-12

In twelve years, the son will be:

s+12

And the father will be:

f+12

This can also be written as:

3s-12+12 as the fathers younger age would be f = 3s+12

=

3s

So, we know that s+12 is half the fathers current age, meaning the father is currently 2(s+12) which is equivalent to 2s+24. Also, we know that the father is currently 3 times the sons age 12 years ago, so 3s (proven by the calculations we made above). Therefore, 2s+24=3s which means 24=s. We can then substitute this, and we will receive 24+12 = 36

Son’s current age: 36

We then substitute the son’s age 12 years ago into 2s+24 to give us the father’s age.

2(24)+24 = 72

Father’s current age: 72

For questions 1 – 6, find the area of the circle to the nearest hundredth.<br> Any help appriciated!
Ganezh [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by :

A = πr²

r is the radius of the circle

(4) Diameter = 22 cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 11 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (11)^2\\\\A=380.13\ cm^2

(5) Diameter = 30 cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 15 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (15)^2\\\\A=706.85\ cm^2

(6) Diameter = 4cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 2 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (2)^2\\\\A=12.56\ cm^2

So, the area of circles 4,5 and 6 are 380.13², 706.85² and 12.56² respectively.
