Let Ishaan be x years
x + 36 = 3 x
36 = 2 x
x = 18
Ishaan is 18

Answer: He is 18 years old right now.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Ishaan be x

After 36 years,

his age will be x+36

According to question,

it is mentioned that Ishaan will be 3 times as old as he is right now ,

So, we will frame it in equation:

$x+36=3x\\\\36=3x-x\\\\36=2x\\\\x=\frac{36}{2}\\\\x=18\ years$

Hence, he is 18 years old right now.

How much more area does a large pizza with a 12 in. diameter have than a small pizza with an 8 in. diameter? Round your answer t

ivolga24 [154]

Answer: About 63 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle = π · r²

r = radius length
π ≈ 3.14

Area of large pizza:

$\pi *r^{2} =3.14*6^{2} =3.14*36=113.04$

Area of small pizza:

$\pi *r^{2} =3.14*4^{2} =3.14*16=50.24$

Difference in area:

$113.04-50.24=62.8$

The drama club is having a car wash as a fundraiser. They wash x cars at $5 each

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

5x + 8y ≥ 250 (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write an equation to represent the total cost to wash cars:

$5x = cost for cars

Then, write another for trucks:

$8y = cost for trucks

If the question is saying that they will wash at least 26 cars and 15 trucks, that means they could wash more. This means that we'll need an inequality:

This inequality represents that the total number of cars and trucks they wash will be at least—which means that it is equal to or greater than—than the amount given:

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

Any equation or inequality with two unknowns is not solvable, meaning we need a system of equations:

If they make at least $250, that means that we need to combine the costs of the cars and trucks to make an inequality:

5x + 8y ≥ 250

Now you have your system of equations:

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

5x + 8y ≥ 250
