X is the son's age = 20

1 + 3x
= 1 + 3(20)
= 1 + 60
= 61

so father's age = 61
son's age = 20

Find X Options: 6 4 square root 6 6 square root 146

For this case we can apply the Pythagorean theorem to find "x". Taking the rectangle triangle of base 5 we have:

$x = \sqrt {11 ^ 2-5 ^ 2}\\x = \sqrt {121-25}\\x = \sqrt {96}\\\x = \sqrt {4 ^ 2 * 6}$

By definition of power properties we have:

$\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}$

So:

$x = 4 \sqrt {6}$

Answer:

$x = 4 \sqrt {6}$

Solve the following equation: (n + 1) + 3(n - 1) = 2(n - 1)(n + 1)

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

n = 0, n =2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(n + 1) + 3(n - 1) = 2(n - 1)(n + 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

n + 1 + 3n - 3 = 2(n² - 1), that is

4n - 2 = 2n² - 2 ( subtract 4n - 2 from both sides )

0 = 2n² - 4n ← factor out 2n from each term )

0 = 2n(n - 2)

Equate each factor to zero and solve for n

2n = 0 ⇒ n = 0

n - 2 = 0 ⇒ n = 2
