M=mary's age
c=chris's age

m is 4 younger than 3 times chris
m=-4+3c
m=3c-4

mary's age 3 years ago (m-3) is equal to chris age in 9 years (c+9), find c and m

m-3=c+9

we got
m=3c-4
sub 3c-4 for m in other eqution
3c-4-3=c+9
3c-7=c+9
minus c both sides
2c-7=9
add 7 to both sides
2c=16
divide both sides by 2
c=8

sub back
m=3c-4
m=3(8)-4
m=24-4
m=20


mary=20
chris=8

Mary = M   Chris = C
M = 3C-4
M-3=C+9 -->  M=C+12
3C-4=C+12
2C=16
C=8
M=3C-4   --> C=8
M=3(8)-4
M=24-4
M=20

Mary is 20, and Chris is 8

Let A = { x ∈ R : x 2 − 5 x + 4 ≤ 0 } , B = (3 , 5), and C = (3 , 4]. Show that A ∩ B = C . (Recall, you must show two separate
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

You can proceed as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve the quadratic inequality x^{2}-5x+4\leq 0. To do that, factorize, then we have that (x-4)(x-1)\leq 0. This implies that

x-1\leq 0\, \text{and}\, x-4\geq 0

or

x-1 \geq 0\, \text{and}\, x-4\leq 0

In the first case the solution is the empty set \emptyset. In the second case the solution is the interval 1\leq x \leq 4. Now we have that

A=[1,4]

B=(3,5)

C=(3,4].

To show that A\cap B\subseteq C consider x\in A\cap B. Then 1\leq x \leq 4\, \text{and}\, 1, this implies that 3, then x\in C. Now, to show that C\subseteq A\cap B consider x\in C, then 3, then 1\leq x \leq 4\, \text{and}\, 3, then x\in [1,4] \, \text{and}\, x\in (3,5), this implies that x\in A\cap B.
