Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangle has an area of 30ft^2
Each triangle has an area of 25ft^2
25+25+30=80
Since AB is a straight line, and straight lines are 180 degrees, you can add the two 62 degree angles.
62+62=124
180-124=56
angle x is 56 degrees
The correct answer is -1 and 1/2.
First, you need to divide 1/2 by -4/5. To do this, you multiply 1/2 by -5/4. You will get -10/8.
Then, you add -10/8 with -2/8 to get -12/8, or -1 and 1/2.
X=Elinor´s age today.
y=Mother´s age today.
(x+15)=Elinor´s age after 15 years.
(y+15)=Mohter´s age after 15 years.
We can suggest this systemen of equations:
x/y=3/8 ⇒x=3y/8
(x+15)/(y+15)=6/11 ⇒11(x+15)=6(y+15)
Finally, we´ll have the following system:
x=3y/8
11(x+15)=6(y+15)
We can solve this system of equations by substitution method:
11[(3y/8)+15)=6(y+15)
11[(3y+120)/8)=6y+90
33y+1320=8(6y+90)
33y+1320=48y+720
33y-48y=720-1320
-15y=-600
y=-600/-15
y=40
We find out the value of "x";
x=3y/8
x=3(40)/8
x=120/8
x=15
Answer: Elinor is 15 years old.
The first one, or the one that has 10% first.
