a father is now 38 years older than his son. Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son. let x represent the age of the son no

Helga [31]

The present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

Solution:

Given that, a father is now 38 years older than his son

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Let "x" be the age of son now

Therefore, from given,

Father age now = 38 + age of son now

Father age now = 38 + x

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Age of son ten years ago = age of son now - 10

Age of son ten years ago = x - 10

Age of father ten years ago = 38 + x - 10

Then we get,

Age of father ten years ago = twice the age of son ten years ago

38 + x - 10 = 2(x - 10)

28 + x = 2x - 20

2x - x = 28 + 20

x = 48

Thus son age now is 48 years old

Father age now = x + 38 = 48 + 38 = 86

Thus present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

Answer:

as x increases, f(x) decreases;
as x decreases,f(x) decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is of even degree with a negative leading coefficient. f(x) will tend toward negative infinity as x gets larger or smaller. That is ...

as x increases, f(x) decreases;
as x decreases,f(x) decreases

_____

Even degree means the end behaviors are the same for both large and small x. Negative leading coefficient means the function value decreases for larger x.

If the area of a square with side x is equal to the area of a triangle with base x, then find the altitude of the triangle.

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

$h= 2x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Square

$Side = x$

Triangle

$Base = x$

$Altitude = h$

Required

Find h, if both shapes have the same area

The area of the square is:

$Area = x * x$

$Area = x^2$

The area of the triangle is:

$Area = \frac{1}{2} * Base*Height$

$Area = \frac{1}{2} * x*h$

Equate both areas

$x^2 = \frac{1}{2} * x*h$

Divide both sides by x

$x = \frac{1}{2} *h$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2*x = \frac{1}{2} *h*2$

$2x = h$

$h= 2x$
