Answer:

27 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In three years, Tom will be 57 + 3 = <em>60 years old</em>.

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

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.

4x + 3y = 6<br> -4x + 2y = 14<br> Solve the system of equations.
pshichka [43]

Answer:

x = -1.5    y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 3y = 6

-4x + 2y = 14                  Add both equations together

       5y = 20                  Divide both sides by 5

        y = 4

Plug this into one of the original equations

4x + 3(4) = 6                Multiply

4x + 12 = 6

     -12  - 12                  Subtract 12 from both sides

4x = -6                         Divide both sides by 4

x = -1.5

Answer:

5 : 6 or \frac{5}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, I make 5 quarts of tomato sauce from 6 baskets of tomatoes.

Therefore, the ratio of the number of quarts of tomato sauce to the number of the basket of tomatoes will be given by 5 : 6 in the simplest form.

If we want to express the ratio of the number of quarts of tomato sauce to the number of the basket of tomatoes in fraction form then it will be \frac{5}{6} in the simplest form. (Answer)

Find the length of the right triangle’s other leg. Round to the nearest tenth. SHOW YOUR WORK. leg = 9 ft hypotenuse = 12 ft
GREYUIT [131]

Use the Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2. a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse. Plug in your numbers: 9^2 + b^2 = 12^2

81 + b^2 = 144. Subtract 81 from 144 : b^2 = 63. Now take the square root of 63, which is 7.9. 7.9 ft is your answer.
