0.3:0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
first convert the % to decimals.
75%=0.75
25%=0.25
then look for a common factor and divide be that, in this case its 5.
0.75/5=0.15
0.25/5=0.5
now since these arent in the simplified form, you gotta divide again by 5.
0.15/5=0.3
0.5/5=0.1
Answer:
<u><em>The value of x is 2.6</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Use pythagorean theorem</em>
a^2+b^2=c^2
<em>Then substitute</em>
1^2+2.4^2=c^2
<em>Then evaluate</em>
1+5.76=c^2
<em>Add</em>
c^2=6.76
<em>Isolate c by finding the sqrt of 6.76</em>
c=2.6
Answer:
6.5 and 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 10, 11, & 12
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the age of the youngest child.
Their ages are consecutive so,
Youngest: x
Middle: x + 1
Oldest: x + 2
The age of the Youngest squared (x²) equals 8 times the Oldest [8(x + 2)] plus 4.
x² = 8(x + 2) + 4
x² = 8x + 16 + 4
x² = 8x + 20
x² - 8x - 20 = 0
(x - 10)(x + 2) = 0
x - 10 = 0 or x + 2 = 0
x = 10 or x = -2
Since age cannot be negative, x = -2 is not valid
So, the Youngest (x) is 10
the Middle (x + 1) is 11
and the Oldest (x + 2) is 12
