Amy = x
Betty = y
Carl = z
x + y = 29
x + z = 27
y + z = 22
y = 29 - x
z = 27 - x
29 - x + 27 - x = 22
-2x + 56 = 22
-2x = - 34
x = 17
y = 12
z = 10
Oldest child is Amy (17) and youngest child is Carl (10)
17 - 10 = 7
The difference between oldest child and youngest child is 7 years.

Pls help !!!!! i'll mark brainliest
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Last year there were 550 bison in the heard and this year it is 10% larger.

10% is also 10/100 or 0.10

To find 10% of the heard last year

550 x.0.10 = 55. To find the number in the heard this year add 550 (last year) + 55 (10% growth) = 605 or,

to find how many there are now last years heard size was 100% of the heard or 1.00. To find any percent more add it to 1.00 and multiply by the starting amount.

550 x 1.10 = 605

For the second example.

If there are 550 bison in the heard this year, and this year was a decrease of 10% from last year we can express last year's number like this.

550 = (x - (x * 0.10)) simplify;

550 = 1x - 0.10x

550 = 0.90x

Divide both sides by 0.90

x = 611.11 but it's hard to have 0.11 of a bison so realistically 611 bison last year. Subtract 10% or 61 and you indeed have 550 this year.

Which of the following is solution set of 4x = y and 2x2 − y = 0? A. {(0.5, -0.5), (2, -8)} B. {(0, 0), (2, 8)} C. {(1.5, 2), (8
sergiy2304 [10]
4x = y
2x^2 - y = 0
2x^2 - 4x = 0
2x(x - 2) = 0
2x = 0 or x - 2 = 0
x = 0 or x = 2

y = 4(0) or y = 4(2)
y = 0 or y = 8

Therefore, solution set is {(0, 0), (2, 8)}
