Jane: x
Harvey: 3x
48= x+3x 
so 48=4x
x=12
Jane is 12 and Harvey is 36

Let janes age be x 
let Harvey's age be 3x (as three times old as jane)
x+3x=48
4x=48
x=48/4
there fore x= 12
janes age= 12 
Harvey's age = 3x
                     =3*12
                     =36

The area of that figure is 2453.25 square feet

First, you would need to find the area of the rectangle

(L)(W)
(70)(30)
2100

Then since it is only a semi circle, the formula is pi*r^2/2

You find the area of a full circle first

(3.14)(15^2)
(3.14)(225)
706.5

Then you divide that by 2 since it’s only half a circle

706.5/2 = 353.25

Finally you add that by the area of the rectangle

2100 + 353.25 = 2453.25 square feet

Simplify <br>99=2(-7b-3)+7​
Arisa [49]

Answer:

b=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

99 = 2(-7b + -3) + 7

Reorder the terms:

99 = 2(-3 + -7b) + 7

99 = (-3 * 2 + -7b * 2) + 7

99 = (-6 + -14b) + 7

Reorder the terms:

99 = -6 + 7 + -14b

Combine like terms: -6 + 7 = 1

99 = 1 + -14b

Solving

99 = 1 + -14b

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '14b' to each side of the equation.

99 + 14b = 1 + -14b + 14b

Combine like terms: -14b + 14b = 0

99 + 14b = 1 + 0

99 + 14b = 1

Add '-99' to each side of the equation.

99 + -99 + 14b = 1 + -99

Combine like terms: 99 + -99 = 0

0 + 14b = 1 + -99

14b = 1 + -99

Combine like terms: 1 + -99 = -98

14b = -98

Divide each side by '14'.

b = -7

Simplifying

b = -7
