T = 4 + 2A
S = 5A - 8
T = S
Since T and S are equal, set them against each other
2A + 4 = 5A - 8
Subtract 2A from each side, and add 8 to each side
12 = 3A
Divide each side by 3
A = 4
So Andrew is 4 years old
If Andrew is 4, then Tom is twice that plus 4, or 12. Sarah is 5 times 4 less 8, or 12.

Find the minimum and maximum values of z = 2x+4y<br> 4x + y ≤ 40<br> 20x +y ≥72<br> 4x + 5y ≥ 72
gladu [14]

There are no feasible solutions for minimum and maximum values for the function z = 2x + 4y that follow the given constraints.

  • The given constraints are.
  • 4x + y ≤ 40
  • 20x +y ≥72
  • 4x + 5y ≥ 72
  • We change these inequalities to equations.
  • 4x + y = 40
  • 20x +y =72
  • 4x + 5y = 72.
  • Now we find the points which satisfy the equation when x is 0 and when y is 0. We do this for every equation.
  • (0, 40) and (10, 0) satisfy the first equation.
  • (0, 72) and (3.6, 0) satisfy the second equation.
  • (0, 14.4) and (18, 0) satisfy the third equation.
  • Now we plot these equations on the graph.
  • Now we shade the regions that belong to the corresponding inequalities.
  • The common region contains our feasible solution.
  • But here we have no common region for all three inequalities.
  • So, there are no feasible solutions.

On a number line point x is located at 2 / 3 on a second number line point y is the same distance from zero as point x what has
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Point X on number line 1 from 0= 2/3

Point Y on number line 2 from 0 = same distance as point X on number line

Point Y has a denominator of 8 ; the numerator is thus;°

Let denominator = d ; Fraction becomes 8/d

Thus `

Point X on 1 = point Y

2/3 = 8/ d

2d = 3 * 8

2d = 24

d = 12
