Answer:
Priya's age = 15
Amirah's age = 19
Shirley's age = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the age of Priya.
According to the question,
Amirah's age = x + 4
Shirley's age = x - 2
Their sum is 47.
So,
x + 4 + x + x - 2 = 47
3x + 2 = 47
3x = 47 - 2
3x = 45
x = 45/3
x = 15
So,
Priya's age = 15
Amirah's age = 15 + 4 = 19
Shirley's age = 15 - 2 = 13
For this case we must find 35% of 280.
Kerrie gets 10% and then 25%. So:
10% of 280:
280 ------------> 100%
x -----------------> 10%
Where "x" represents the amount given by 10% of 280.

Thus, 10% of 280 is 28.
Now, we find 25% of 280:
280 ------------> 100%
x -----------------> 25%
Where "x" represents the amount given by 25% of 280.

Thus, 25% of 280 is 70.
So we have that 35% of 280 is given by:

So, Kerrie's solution is correct.
Answer:
Option A
Answer:
Third option
Step-by-step explanation:
We can't factor this so we need to use the quadratic formula which states that when ax² + bx + c = 0, x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a. However, we notice that b (which is 6) is even, so we can use the special quadratic formula which states that when ax² + bx + c = 0 and b is even, x = (-b' ± √(b'² - ac)) / a where b' = b / 2. In this case, a = 1, b' = 3 and c = 7 so:
x = (-3 ± √(3² - 1 * 7)) / 1 = -3 ± √2
10x10x10x10, you have to multiply 10 by 10 four times, since it's 10 to the power of 4.
