I believe it’s 10
Explanation : Simplify the radical by breaking the radicand up into a product of known factors, assuming positive real numbers.
Answer:
12 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the mother's age by m and the son's by 4. Currently m = 36 years old.
In x years the mother will be three times as old as her son:
mother: 36 + x years old
son: 4 + x years old
The pertinent equation to solve is:
36 + x = 3(4 + x)
Performing the multiplication, we get:
36 + x = 12 + 3x, or
24 = 2x. Then x = 12.
Check: In 12 years, will the mother's age be 3 times the son's age?
Does 36 + 12 = 3(4 + 12)?
Does 48 = 48? YES
The mother will be 3 times as old as her son in 12 years from now.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 200)20 = 200(10) + x(40)
20x + 4000 = 2000 + 40x
2000 = 20x
X = 100 mL
Answer:
is the sum 78 or 7,878 (i.e. was there a stutter)?
In any event, this sum must be even, so 3 consecutive even integers would be n, n+2 & n+4 whose sum is 3n + 6.
Set that to either 78 or 7878, whichever is intended, & solve for n. If 78 is their grand total, then those 3 consecutive even numbers have to be 24, 26 & 28.
No stress! Just logic! Keep the faith!
