Carmen is 6 and jaun is 18 because 6. Times 3 equals 18 and if you add 6 to 18 you will get 24

You could solve it with this equation;  3x + x = 24
Let 3x = Juan's age
let x = Carmen's age
Now lets solve their ages!

3x + x = 24
4x = 24 (combined liked terms)
x = 24 ÷ 4 
x = 6
So Carmen's age is...6

Now lets substitute the value of x in the original equation to find Juan's age;

3x + x = 24
3(6) + (6) = 24
(3 × 6)+ 6 = 24
(18) + 6 = 24
24 = 24
So Juan's age is...18

Lets check if their ages add up to 24;
18 + 6 = 24 
24 = 24
So their ages are correct! Hope this helps you! :D

Find (r-s) (t-s) + (s-r) (s-t) for all numbers r, s, and t. (a) 0 (b) 2 (c) 2rt (d) 2(s-r) (t-s) (e) 2(r-s) (t-s)
lyudmila [28]
Notice that the 2 expressions have 2 common terms.

(r-s) is just (s-r) times (-1)

similarly

(t-s) is just (s-t) times (-1)

this means that :

(r-s) (t-s) + (s-r) (s-t)=-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)

the 2 minuses in the first multiplication cancel each other so we have:

-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)=(s-r) (s-t)+(s-r) (s-t)=2(s-r) (s-t)

Answer:

The answer is 2/7 because you're finding the greatest common factor of both numbers. The gcf is 8, so divide both by 8 and you'll get 2/7

For 1. The bike is going 24 miles in 3 hours. To figure out how many miles it went in 1 hour you divide 24/3 which is 8 miles. If the bike went 8 miles per hour then you may now multiply it by 10 to find the total mileage in 10 hours. 10x8=80

The table represents the temperature of a cup of coffee over time.

<span>Answer: A) exponential, because there is a relatively consistent multiplicative rate of change
</span><span>
temperature thrice. If you compare time=0 until time=30, you will get this table
t(10)- t(0)= 180-200= -20
t(20)-t(10)= 163-180= -17
t(30)-t(20)= 146-163= -17
</span>t(40)-t(30)= 131- 146= -15
t(50)-t(40)= 118-131= -13
t(50)-t(40)= 107-118= -11

There is something weird about the 2nd and 3rd value because it was same -17., but there seems to be a +2 change to the difference. So, the graph would be exponential with a <span>relatively consistent multiplicative rate of change</span>
