Answer:

son = 6 mother = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Mother = m

son = s

m = 8s

m+6 = 9/2 * (s+6)

so

2(8s + 6) = 9(s +6)

16s + 12 = 9s + 54

16s - 9s = 54 - 12

7s = 42

s = 42/7 = 6 years old

so the mother is 8s = 8*6= 48 years old

Answer:

Son’s present age is 6.

Mother’s present age is 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the mother age be x.

Let the son’s age be y.

x = 8y

x + 6 = 9/2 × (y + 6)

Put x as 8y in the second equation and solve for y.

8y + 6 = 9/2(y + 6)

8y + 6 = 9/2y + 27

8y - 9/2y = 27 - 6

7/2y = 21

y = 21 × 2/7

y = 42/7

y = 6

Put y as 6 in the first equation and solve for x.

x = 8(6)

x = 48

find the value of tan (a-b) if cos a=4/5 on the interval (270, 360) and sin b=-5/13 on the interval (270, 360)
Rudiy27

We can find a and b using inverse trig functions,

\cos(a)=\frac{4}{5}\implies a=\arccos\Big(\frac{4}{5}\Big)\approx36.87 \\\sin(b)=-\frac{5}{13}\implies b=\arcsin\Big(-\frac{5}{13}\Big)\approx-22.62

\tan(36.87-(-22.62))\approx1.7

Hope this helps.

In what line do planes A and QRV intersect?
matrenka [14]

In this question, we have to fin the line of intersection of the planes A and QRV.

We have to see the given figure and find the line on which the two planes A and QRV meets.

Lines SR,TS, WT and WQ are not on plane QRV.

The only line which passes through both planes is  QR.

And that's the line of intersection of the two planes.

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the point
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y+2=3(x-1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The point-slope form:}\\\\y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m-slope\\(x_1,\ y_1)-point\\\\\text{We have the slope}\ m=3\ \text{and the point (1, -2). Substitute:}\\\\y-(-2)=3(x-1)\\\\y+2=3(x-1)

Is (-4, 2) a solution of 4x + 5y < -7?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the coordinates of the point into the left side of the inequality, evaluate and compare.

4(- 4) + 5(2) = - 16 + 10 = - 6 > - 7

Thus (- 4, 2 ) is not a solution

Describe at least two similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpen
Vitek1552 [10]

The similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpendicular through a point off a line include:

  • Both methods involve making a 90-degree angle between two lines.
  • The methods determine a point equidistant from two equidistant points on the line.

<h3>What are perpendicular lines?</h3>

Perpendicular lines are defined as two lines that meet or intersect each other at right angles.

In this case, both methods involve making a 90-degree angle between two lines and the methods determine a point equidistant from two equidistant points on the line.
