Answer:
The son is five years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the son's age be x
A man is five as old as his son, 5x
In five years, he would be three times as old as his son
In five years: son would be x+5
Father 5x+5
3(x+5)=5x+5
3x+15=5x+5
Collect like terms
15-5=5x-3x
10=2x
Divide by 2
10/2=2x/2
x=5
The son is five years old

Step-by-step explanation:
The area is the length times the width. Find area of shapes by counting unit squares. Some shapes will require combining partial square units to find area.<span>
For example - </span><span>A rectangle is 5 centimeters long and 4 centimeters wide. What is its area? </span>
Area = Length * width
The length is <span><span>5</span></span> centimeters. The width is <span><span>4</span></span> centimeters. So the area is <span><span>5 times </span>4</span> square centimeters.
= 20 square centimeters
Answer:
$42.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's create a proportion using the following setup:
cost/pounds=cost/pounds
We know that it costs $20.42 for a 10 pound turkey.
$20.42/10 pounds= cost/pounds
We don't know how much a 21 pound turkey costs, so we can say that it costs $x for a 21 pound turkey.
$20.42/ 10 pounds= $x/ 21 pounds
20.42/10=x/21
We want to find x, by getting x by itself.
x is being divided by 21. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides by 21.
21*(20.42/10)=(x/21)*21
21* 20.42/10=x
21*2.042=x
42.882=x
Round to the nearest cent, or hundredth.
42.88=x
x= $42.88
A 21 pound turkey costs $42.88
