Ages of Dan and Cary are 29 and 33 respectively.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Form equations out of the given details. Let the age of Dan be x, then age of Cary is x + 4.
In 7 years, sum of their ages = 76
⇒ (x + 7) + (x + 4 + 7) = 76
⇒ 2x + 18 = 76
⇒ 2x = 58
⇒ x = 29
Step 2:
Calculate age of Cary.
⇒ x + 4 = 33
6a-2(a-1)
6a-2a-2
4a-2
I think it is 4a-2
2 would be the correct answer:)
The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:
x: the total mass of the chemical in the container
y: a sample of a chemical from a container
We have the following equation:
y = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Then, for y = 39.1 we have:
39.1 = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Clearing x:
(3/10) x = 39.1 + 5 3/4
(3/10) x = 44.85
x = (10/3) * (44.85)
x = 149.5 grams
Answer:
the total mass in grams of the chemical in the container before the scientist removed the sample of 39.1 grams was:
x = 149.5 grams.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
If it equals the double of one angle that means it is bisected in to 2 equal parts
