Casey is 18 years old and Ralph is 3 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Age of Casey = x

Age of Ralph = y

According to given statement;

x = 6y     Eqn 1

In two years

x+2=4(y+2)

x+2=4y+8

x = 4y+8-2

x = 4y+6     Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 1 in Eqn 2

6y=4y+6 \\6y-4y=6\\2y=6

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{6}{2}\\y=3

Putting y=3 in Eqn 1

x=6(3)\\x=18

Casey is 18 years old and Ralph is 3 years old.

Sasha is bisecting a segment. First, she places the compass on one endpoint, opens it to a width larger than half of the segment
ycow [4]

Her next step is to repeat the last process of drawing those two arcs. However, they will be mirrored since she swapped endpoints.

Check out the diagram below. Figure 1 is what she already has. Figure 2 is what happens after completing the next step. The red and blue arcs intersect to help form the endpoints of the perpendicular bisector. I used GeoGebra to make the diagrams.

Please help me in this question.Tell me if it is good. And if it is not good then do it for me please.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Y = 170, Z = 64.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is the external angle to x, which you got right, it is in fact, 180-10, = 170 degrees. And since z is the external to our unknown angle, that means it is equal to the sum of the other two angles in the triangle. That means z is 54 + 10, which is 64.

A wheel with radius 1 foot makes 1 revolution in 4 seconds. What is the linear velocity, in feet per second, of a point on the e
Alona [7]

In one revolution of the wheel, a point on the edge travels a distance equal to the circumference of the wheel.

The wheel has radius 1 ft, so its circumference is 2π (1 ft) = 2π ft.

Then the point has a linear speed of

(1/4 rev/s) * (2π ft/rev) = 2π/4 ft/s = π/2 ft/s

marissa [1.9K]
A. The slope is 25 and it is the rate of change per month. You will pay this additional amount if you go to the gym every month.
b. The y-intercept is 50. This amount is the constant and does not change since it is a one time fee for the year.
