Lisa is 50 years

Sam is 50 / 2 = 25 years

Brad is 25 * 3 = 75 years

Let the ages of these three persons  be represented by L, S and B.  Then,

L=2S, and B/3=S.

With L=50, 50=2S, and so S= 25.

Since B/3=S, B=3S, so that B here is 75.

Lisa is 50, Brad is 75 and Sam is 25 (years of age).

Suppose the total weight of the fish caught stayed the same but instead of 100 fish caught during the weeklong fishing trip only
Paha777 [63]
The weight of each fish would be multiplied by 10.

Assume the first time, the weight was 800 lb.  Since there were 100 fish caught, the weight of each fish would be 800/100 = 8 lb.

This time, however, only 10 fish were caught.  The weight would be 800/10 = 80 lb.  

80 = 8(10), so the weight is 10 times more.

Sladkaya [172]
The height of the Empire State Building is 318.00 meters. If a stone is dropped from the top of the building, what is the stone's velocity just before it strikes the ground? 

Answer: In order to find the stone’s velocity just before it strikes the ground we will use one of the free fall equations. V = √(2gh). We already have the values needed which are the gravity (9.8 m/s2) and our total height (318 meters). All you have to do is solve for V. You should get 78.95 m/s.
