Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can express this as a system of equations:

x in this instance will be her present age.

x + 8 = 2x + 3

simply solve for x after this by subtracting three and x from both sides, and you’ll find that x is 5.

Please help explanation if possible

Answer:

  y -4 = -2(x -(-11))

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope formula is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

__

So, the boxes in order from left to right are k, m, h.

The problem statement tells you the point is (-11, 4), so h = -11, k = 4. It also tells you the slope is -2, so m = -2.

Putting these numbers in the required order, we have k = 4, m = -2, h = -11 and the equation of the line is ...

  y-\boxed{4}=\boxed{-2}(x-\boxed{-11})

If y is 9 and x is 12, what additional information is necessary to show that triangle DUM is congruent to triangle MAP using the
Law Incorporation [45]
                         Δ DUM         Δ MAP

hypotenuse:      15                2y-3
short leg:             12                0.5x + 6

y = 9 ⇒ 2(9) - 3 = 18 - 3 = 15 Congruent with the hypotenuse of Δ DUM
x = 12 ⇒ 0.5(12) + 6 = 6 + 6 = 12 Congruent with the short leg of Δ DUM

SAS postulate states that two triangles are congruent if 2 of its sides and 1 angle have equal measure. Both the hypotenuse and short leg are equal in measure. Thus, both triangles are congruent with each other.

Yes. In fact 3:4:5 is a Pythagorean triple or simply right triangle where all sides are in \mathbb{Z}.

Hope this helps.

Tom can do a job in 4 hours while Sam can do it in 6 hours. How many hours would it take to complete this job if they work toget
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

12/5hours=2.4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam:6hours

Tom:4hours

This is a rate problem

Sam's rate is one job completed in 6 hours which is 1/6

Tom's rate is one job completed in 4 hours which is 1/4

Together, they could complete 1/4+1/6 of the job in y hours

We are trying to find the rate at which Sam and Tom could complete the job together, or one job in x days, for a rate of 1/y

1/4+1/6=1/y

The least common denominator is 12y

Multiplying through by the LCD which gives:

12y(1/4)+ 12y (1/6)= 12y (1/y)

3y + 2y=12

5y = 12

y=12/5 hours=2.4hours

Therefore it will take 12/5 hours or 2.4 hours to complete the job if they work together
