Answer:

The oldest brother is 20 years old.  PLEASE GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Youngest = 5x - (x+4) = 60                           Oldest = 5x - 60

                   5x - 1(x+4) = 60                                5(16) - 60 =

                   5x - x - 4 = 60                                  80 - 60 = 20

                   4x - 4 = 60

                    4x = 60 + 4

                  4x = 64    

                    x = 64 ÷ 4    x = 16

Youngest = 16

Middle = 18

Oldest = 20

What is length of X and length of Y
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

It is a right angled triangle.

so

tan32 = p/b

or, tan32 = x/5

or, tan32×5 = x

so, x = 3.124

for 5 no. the answer is a. 3.124

For y,

cos32 = b/h

or, cos32 = 5/y

or, y = 5/cos32

so, y = 5.895

for 6 no. 5.895 is closest to 5.994, so the answer is c. 5.994.
