Answer:

27 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In three years, Tom will be 57 + 3 = 60 years old.

Since Tom will be twice as old as James at that time, then James will be half his age, or 60/2 = 30 years old.

If James is going to be 30 years old in three years, then he is 27 years old now.

Answer: 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom is 57 now. In 3 years he will be 60, but also twice as old as his son. 1/2 of 60 is 30. 30 minus the 3 years that hasn’t happened yet equals 27.

4 Which of the following is a function? А B C D

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is when every input has one output.

Easiest way is to do the "vertical line test" and "horizonal line test."

Basically you draw a vertical line and a horizontal line.

If either line passes through more than one point, then it is not a function.

The only one that passes them is B, the line.

Given the triangle

PQR

with points

P(8,0)

Q(6,2)

R(-2,-4)

And the triangle

P'Q'R'

with points

P'(4,0)

Q'(3,1)

R'(-1,-2)

Part A. Scale factor

Using the vertex

P( 8, 0)

P'(4,0)

the dilatation factor is given by

$\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}$

The triangle has a dilatation factor of 1/2

Part B:

P''Q''R'' after using P'Q'R' reflected about the y axis

to make a reflection over the y axis

coordinates (x,y) turn into coordinates (-x,y)

as follows

$P^{\prime}(4,0)\rightarrow P^{\prime\prime}(-4,0)$ $Q^{\prime}(3,1)\rightarrow Q^{\prime\prime}(-3,1)$ $R^{\prime}(-1,-2)\rightarrow R^{\prime\prime}(1,-2)$

Then triangle P''Q''R'' has coordinates

P''(-4,0)

Q''(-3,1)

R''(1,-2)

Part C:

PQR is congruent to P''Q''R''?

Congruent triangles are triangles that have the same size and shape. This means that the corresponding sides are equal and the corresponding angles are equal.

Then the triangles are not congruent

After arianna completed some work, she figured she still had 78 21/100 pictures to paint. if she completed another 34 23/25 pict

dezoksy [38]

Subtract the number she completed from what she had left to paint originally.

The fractions have different denominators so first step is to rewrite the fractions with a common denominator.

23/25 can be rewritten as 92/100

Now you have 78 21/100 - 34 92/100

Because 21/100 is smaller than 92/100 subtract 1 whole number from 78 and rewrite 1 as 100/100 and add that to the fraction.

78 21/100 becomes 77 121/100

Now subtract :

77 121/100 - 34 92/100

77-34 = 43

And 121/100 - 92/100 = 29/100

Combine to get 43 and 29/100
