The ratio of SAMs age to hank is 5 to 3. If the sum of their age is 24. How old is is hank?

1 answer:

3 0

Lets consider SAM's age is 'x' and Hank's age is 'y'
So as per given data Sam's age is 5/3 times of Hank's age
so x = 5/3 * y
3x = 5y --> equation 1
and also sum of their ages is 24
so, x + y = 24
we need to find Hank's age (y)
so x = 24 - y
Now replace x value in equation 1
3(24-y) = 5y
72-3y = 5y
72 = 3y+5y
8y= 72
y= 72/8
y = 9 years.

So the Hank's age is 9 years

Answer: $\bold{A)\quad y=5sin\bigg(\dfrac{6}{5}x-\pi\bigg)-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a sin/cos function is: y = A sin/cos (Bx-C) + D where the period (P) = 2π ÷ B

In the given function, $B=\dfrac{6}{5}$ → $P=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{5}{6}=\dfrac{10\pi}{3}$

Half of that period is: $\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{10\pi}{3}=\large\boxed{\dfrac{5\pi}{3}}$

Calculate the period for each of the options to find a match:

$A)\quad B=\dfrac{6}{5}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{6}{5}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{5}{6}=\dfrac{5\pi}{3}\quad \leftarrow\text{THIS WORKS!}\\\\\\B)\quad B=\dfrac{6}{10}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{6}{10}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{10}{6}=\dfrac{10\pi}{3}\\\\\\C)\quad B=\dfrac{5}{6}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{5}{6}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{6}{5}=\dfrac{12\pi}{5}\\\\\\D)\quad B=\dfrac{3}{10}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{3}{10}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{10}{3}=\dfrac{20\pi}{3}$

If you think about it, an octagon is made up of 8 triangles. So you first find the area of one triangle then multiply it by 8 for the total area:
A=1/2bh
A=1/2(9.9)(12)
A=59.4

59.4 x 8= 475.2

Therefore the total area for the octagon should be 475.2 units^2

Hope this helps !
