Lets Sean's age be x
Helen's age by y
x/y=3/5
x=3/5y

Second equation
2(x-2)=y-2

on solving u get Helen as 10 and Sean as 6

Overfishing occurs when more fish are removed from an ecosystem than can be maintained by the population,

Overfishing can lead to significant population declines in economically important species. The passage describes

According to the passage, which mechanism explains the observed changes in fish size over time?

A. Smaller fish produce fewer eggs than larger fish do, so they contribute fewer offspring to the next

generation.

B. Fish that are small enough to escape fishing nets are more likely to survive than larger fish.

C. Scientists found that Atlantic silversides exhibited changes in feeding and foraging rates after four

generations of selection,

D. The average size of pink salmon returning to spawn decreased from 6.0 pounds to approximately 4.5

pounds.

It's easy to show that $7\tan(4x)$ is strictly increasing on $x\in\left[0,\frac\pi8\right]$ . This means

$M = \max \left\{7\tan(4x) \mid \dfrac\pi{16} \le x \le \dfrac\pi{12}\right\} = 7\tan(4x) \bigg|_{x=\pi/12} = 7\sqrt3$

and

$m = \min \left\{7\tan(4x) \mid \dfrac\pi{16} \le x \le \dfrac\pi{12}\right\} = 7\tan(4x) \bigg|_{x=\pi/16} = 7$

Then the integral is bounded by

$\displaystyle 7\left(\frac\pi{12} - \frac\pi{16}\right) \le \int_{\pi/16}^{\pi/12} 7\tan(4x) \, dx \le 7\sqrt3 \left(\frac\pi{12} - \frac\pi{16}\right)$

$\implies \displaystyle \boxed{\frac{7\pi}{48}} \le \int_{\pi/16}^{\pi/12} 7\tan(4x) \, dx \le \boxed{\frac{7\sqrt3\,\pi}{48}}$
