Yann will be x years old y years from now. How old was he z years ago?

Here we can change the variables to real numbers, just to make things easier for us. For the sake of calculation, let’s say that x=10, y=6, and z=1.

So, y years from now, Yann will be x years old. If we plug in our randomly chosen numbers, we get that Yann will be 10 years old 6 years from now. This means that today, he would be x-y years old, or 10-6, so 4 years old today.
Next we ask how old he was z years ago, or in this case, 1 year ago. We know that if you’re 4 years old now, you were 3 years old last year. In other words, you’re 4-1 years old, or x-y-z years old.

Your answer is x-y-z.

An angle measure is 72.3 degrees. What is the measure of its complement? (I already tried 17.7 and that’s not correct).
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

I got 17.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a complimentary angle adds up to 90 degrees, this would be the right answer... does it require a degree symbol?

-2 + 3b = 5b - 2(2b + 3) How do you solve for b?
mina [271]
-2 + 3b = 5b - 2(2b + 3)  Distribute the -2 through the parentheses.
-2 + 3b = 5b - 4b - 6        Combine like terms
-2 + 3b = b - 6                 Bring all "b's" to one side of the equation
-2 + 3b - b = b - b - 6       Combine like terms
-2 + 2b = -6                      Bring the 2 to the right side of the equation
-2 + 2 + 2b = -6 + 2          Combine like terms
2b = -4                              Isolate b by dividing both sides by 2
b = -4/2 = -2

Answer b = -2

In a 3 hour examination of 320 questions, there are 40 mathematics problems. if twice as much time should be allowed for each ma
xeze [42]
<span>Let the total hour of exam is 3hrs ie 180 minutes.( since answer required in minutes). Let as assume maths questions be in x minutes. Let the assume rest of the question is in y minutes. Given that out of 320 qns 40 is maths qns. therefore, maths qn is =40 and rest of qns is 280. Also given the time of maths qns is twice of rest. They related in the following equation. ie x:y=2:1 ; x/y =2/1 ie x=2y therefore 2x+y= 180 min ; ie 2(2y)+y= 180 ; y=36 therefore resolving for x = 2*36 = 72 time spent for maths qn is 2*x = 2* 72 =144min. rest of maths question is 36 min.</span>
