Step-by-step explanation:

phukan = x

Nanwan = y

let this be a simultaneous equation.

x - y = 18.... equation i

x + y = 100.... equation ii

subtract equation i from equation ii

= 2y = 118

y = 59

substitute y = 59 in equation ii to get x

x + 59 = 100

x = 100- 59

x = 41

Nanwan = 59, Phukan = 41

Answer:

Nawman = 59 years

Phukan = 41 years

Step-by-step explanation:

P = N - 18

P + N = 100

(N - 18) + N = 100

2N = 100 + 18

2N = 118

N = 118 : 2

N = 59 years

P = (59 - 18) years

P = 41 years

Convert the given measurements to the new units to be 37cm

brilliants [131]

Answer:

37cm = 370 millimeters

37cm = 0.37 meter

37cm = 0.00037 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

$1cm = 10 millimeters \\\\1 cm = \frac{1}{100} meter\\\\1cm = \frac{1}{100000} kilometer\\\\$

37cm = 370 millimeters

37cm = 0.37 meter

37cm = 0.00037 kilometers

Sonya's employer matches 25% of Sonya's contributions to her 401(k) plan. If Sonya's employer contributed $600 to the plan last

maksim [4K]

So, if 600 is 25%, that means we do 600*4=2400 600 is 1/4 of 2400.

So the answer is 2400

I hope this helps!

What is the denominator of the simplified expression? (startfraction 2 n over 6 n + 4 endfraction) (startfraction 3 n + 2 over 3

max2010maxim [7]

n/3n - 2.

The denominator of the given simplified expression is

The given expression is ( 2n/6n + 4 ) ( 3n + 2/ 3n - 2 )

To find the denominator of the simplified expression :

First, simplify the given expression as below ;

( 2n/6n + 4 ) ( 3n + 2/ 3n - 2 )

( 2n/2₍₃ₙ ₊ ₂₎ ( 3n + 2/ 3n - 2 ) ( here by taking the common term 2 outside the factor )

= (n/1) ( 1/ 3n - 2 ) ( here by simplifying the factors )

= n/3n - 2.

Therefore, ( 2n/6n + 4 ) ( 3n + 2/ 3n - 2 ) = n/3n - 2

Therefore the result of the given simplified expression is = n/3n - 2.

Built in 2011, the capital gate tower is 150 meters tall (measured vertically from the ground) and makes a 72 degree angle with

Softa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can create a right triangle out of this information and then use right triangle trig to solve.

We are given the height of the triangle as the height of the tower which is 150m.

We are given the angle of inclination as the degree the tower makes with the ground which is 72.

From the angle of 72 degrees, which is also known as the reference angle, we have the side across from it (the height) and we are looking for the side adjacent to it (how far from the base of the tower the keys will land). Side opposite the reference angle over side adjacent to the reference angle is the tangent ratio:

$tan(72)=\frac{150}{x}$ and, solving for x,

$x=\frac{150}{tan(72)}$

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode to solve this. Divide 150 by the tan(72) and find that

x = 48.7 m
