Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let age of each twin be x
let age of sister be s
So we can write:
x + 4 = s
The product of the 3 siblings ages is 3482 more than sum. We can write:
This can be simplified as:
We replace s with "x + 4" and solve:
<u>Note:</u> To solve this cubic, we used technology
Thus, we can say the twins are 14 years old
Using proportions, it is found that it will take them 0.00248548 minutes to do one loop.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
In this problem, according to their speed, in 60 minutes, they drive 300 miles. In how many minutes will they drive 20 m = 0,0124274 miles?
The <em>rule of three</em> is:
60 min - 300 miles
x min - 0.0124274 miles
Applying cross multiplication:
It will take them 0.00248548 minutes to do one loop.
