Let's create expressions and equations to model this situation. Let Anthony's age be a.
"Jim is 3 times as old as his cousin, Anthony." Jim's age is 3a.
"The difference in their age is 18." 3a - a = 18
How old is Jim?
Let's solve the above equation for a to first find Anthony's age.
3a - a = 18
2a = 18
a = 9
Remember, Jim's age is represented by the expression 3a. Substitute Anthony's age, 9, into the expression to find Jim's age.
3a
3(9)
27
Answer:
Jim is 27 years old.
<span>The exact solution of cos (17</span>π<span>/6) is as follows:
First change the angle into degrees.
17(</span>π/6) (180°/π) = 510°
Then we calculate the cosine of the angle above and it as follows:
cos 510° = -(√3)/2
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
The slope of the line that passes through (5,−10) and ( 11 , − 12 ), in simplest form is: -1/3
<em><u>Recall:</u></em>
- The slope of a line passing across through two points can be calculated using:

<em><u>Given two points:</u></em>
(5,−10) and ( 11 , − 12 )


Slope (m) = -2/6
Slope (m) = -1/3
Therefore the slope of the line that passes through (5,−10) and ( 11 , − 12 ), in simplest form is: -1/3
