Harley is 15 years less than seven times Marcy's age, so that means Haley + 15 = 7 * Marcy
Equation: (41 + 15) / 7 = 56 / 7 = 8
Marcy's age is 8.
Hope this helped =)

The area of a triangle is 1/2bh, where b is the base and h is the height. Substitute the values in.
1/2 * 8 * 32
Now, just solve.

Answer:
Option A = 7.5 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Suppose you're making a soup that uses 5 cups of chicken broth and 
teaspoons of corn starch for 8 servings. You need to make 12 servings of the soup, so you'll need 
teaspoons of corn starch.
To find : How much broth do you need?
Solution :
A soup that uses 5 cups of chicken broth and teaspoons of corn starch for 8 servings.
i.e. 5 cups + teaspoon = 8 servings ......(1)
You need to make 12 servings of the soup, so you'll need 
i.e. x cups +
teaspoon = 12 servings ........(2)
So, First we find the ratio
Ratio is 
So to equal the ratio multiply (1) by 
cups + 
teaspoon = 
servings
cups + teaspoon = 12 servings
On comparing with (2),
The value of x is .
Therefore, The broth do we need is 
cups.
So, Option A is correct.
Answer:
a=50 b=20
Step-by-step explanation:
Call A and B the 2 present ages.
Ten years from now, A is twice as old as B -->
(A + 10) = 2(B + 10) (1)
Five years ago, A was 3 times as old as B -->
(A - 5) = 3(B - 5) (2).
Solve the system (1) and (2).
From (2) --> A = 3B - 15 + 5 = 3B - 10.
Replace this value of A into (1) -->
3B - 10 + 10 = 2B + 20 --> B = 20. Then,
A = 3B - 10 = 60 - 10 = 50.
Check
!0 years from now --> A = 60 and B = 30 --> A = 2B .OK
5 years ago --> A = 45 and B = 15 --> A = 3B. OK
