Answer:
J - Janeta's age M - mother's age
A) (J-5) = .2 * (M-5)
B) J = (1/3) * M
Subtracting 5 from both sides of B:
B) J -5 = (1/3)M -5
then we substitute the right side of this into the left side of A and we get
(1/3)M -5 = .2 M -1
.333333333333M -5 = .2M -1
.1111111111111111111M = 4
Mother's Age = 36
Janeta's Age = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The 20th term is 100
Step-by-step explanation: It adds by 6 each time
-14, -8, -2, 4, 10, 16, 22, 28, 34, 40, 46, 52, 58, 64, 70, 76, 82, 88, 94, 100
Newborn = 18 inches
adult boa = 9 * 18 + 2 = 164 inches
Since all the information is given, then merely put the necessary facts in order.
Had the length of the newborn been unknown, it would have been represented by x.
9x + 2 = 164
9x = 164 - 2
9x = 162
9x/9 = 162/9
x = 18
