Jamie is 3 times as old as her sister Penny .In 2 years Jamie will be twice as old as Penny .How old are Jamie and Penny now

1 answer:

3 0

Well i think this is right;

If jamie is 3 times Pennys age, and in two years he is twice as old as her i would say she is 2 because; 2 * 3 = 6

2 years later Penny would be 4, because she was 2 at the time. And because Jamie was 6 he will become 8. That means he was three times her age. And then in two years twice his age.

So now Jamie is 8 and Penny is 4.
Hope that helps!

What is the root?<br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3-%20%5Csqrt%7Bx%7D%20%3D0%20" id="TexFormula1" title="3- \sqrt{x} =0 "

irga5000 [103]

To solve for x, add 3 to both sides, multiply both sides by -1, then take the square both sides.
$3- \sqrt{x} =0\\- \sqrt{x} =-3 \\ \sqrt{x} =3 \\ x=3^2=9$

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Juan would need to fill up the 1/4 measuring cup 24 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

So to measure one cup of flour with a 1/4 measuring cup, you would need to fill up the 1/4 measuring cup 4 times. Since we want 6 cups, you would need to fill up the 1/4 measuring cup 24 times. 6 times 4 = 24. Hope this helps!
