Answer:

Ivy is 6 years old and Rose is 12 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, two variables are necessary since we have two unknown variables: Ivy's age and Rose's age.

Ivy's age will be x

and Rose's age will be y

"Ivy is half as old as her sister":

x=\frac{y}{2}

this will be our <u>fist equation.</u>

"In six years, Ivy will be two-thirds as old as Rose"

in six years Ivy will have x+6 years, and Rose will have y +6 years, so for this sentence we have the equation:

x+6=\frac{2}{3}(y+6)

this will be our <u>second equation.</u>

Substituting the value of x from the first equation into the second, and solving for y(Rose):

\frac{y}{2}+6=\frac{2}{3} (y+6)\\\frac{y+12}{2} =\frac{2}{3} (y+6)\\y+12=\frac{4}{3} (y+6)\\3(y+12)=4(y+6)\\3y+36=4y+24\\36-24=4y-3y\\12=y

Rose is 12 years old.

and Ivy (using the fist equation):

x=\frac{12}{2}=6

Ivy is 6 years old.

Find (g • f) ^(3) PLEASE HELLPP
spayn [35]
The first thing we are going to do to find (g°f)(3), is find (g°f)(x). To do that, we are going to evaluate g(x) at f(x):
(g°f)(x)=g(f(x))=g(3x-2)=(3x-2)^2=9x^2-12x+4

Now, we can evaluate (g°f) at 3:
g(f(3))=9(3)^2-12(3)+4
g(f(3))=9(9)-36+4
g(f(3))=81-32
g(f(3))=49

We can conclude that the correct answer is c. 49

Find the length of a rectangle if its
Alina [70]

Answer: L = 29cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's go!!

To find any rectangle area, you have to apply this formula: A = L . w , where L is the length and w is the width.

So, we have w = L - 13 (the width is 13 less than the Length) and then, perimeter is 90 cm.

Well, I hope you remember that the perimeter of rectangle is 2L + 2W. In this case, 2L + 2w = 90

Then, you might to solve this system of equation:

2L + 2w = 90

w = L - 13

Simplifying the first equation, you'll have L + w = 45 (you can divide everything of 2).

Our new system:

L + w = 45

w = L - 13

Using the substituition method:

L + L - 13 = 45

2L = 58

L = 29 cm

the width is 29 - 13 = 16 cm

ALGEBRA! NEED HELP!
grigory [225]
The base's length is 8 and it's width is 7, so it's perimeter will be 2\cdot (7+8)=30 . To find the lateral area you shoul multiply this with it's height. So, 30\cdot h=150\\ h=\frac { 150 }{ 30 } \\ h=5 (h is height).
