Answer:

the oldest sibling is 12 years old.

The middle child is 9 years old.

The youngest child is 6 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of the youngest child be x

Then the oldest child will be 2x.

The middle child will be x + 3.

Since the combined age is 27;

x + 2x + x + 3 = 27

4x = 27 - 3

x = 24 / 4

x = 6

now 2x = 12 and x + 3 = 9

Answer:

oldest is 12

middle is 9

youngest is 6

all add up to 27

Step-by-step explanation

idk if i did this right but i did 27 -3 =24

then i divide 24 by 2 which is twelve (the oldest's age)

then 12 divided by 2 is 6 which is the age of the youngest one

6 + 3 is 9, which is the age of the middle one.

Find the value of c that completes the square for x2−15x+c
meriva

Answer:

The value of <em>c</em> is \frac{225}{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perfect square of the difference between two numbers is:

(x-y)^{2}=x^{2}-2xy+y^{2}

The expression provided is:

x^{2}-15x+c

The expression is a perfect square of the difference between two numbers.

One of the number is <em>x</em> and the other is √<em>c</em>.

Use the above relation to compute the value of <em>c</em> as follows:

x^{2}-15x+c=(x-\sqrt{c})^{2}\\\\x^{2}-15x+c=x^{2}-2\cdot x\cdot\sqrt{c}+c\\\\15x=2\cdot x\cdot\sqrt{c}\\\\15=2\cdot\sqrt{c}\\\\\sqrt{c}=\frac{15}{2}\\\\c=[\frac{15}{2}]^{2}\\\\c=\frac{225}{4}

Thus, the value of <em>c</em> is \frac{225}{4}.

9. Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line through the given points. Write answer as y=mx+b. through: (-4, 5)
densk [106]

Answer:

y = -x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(-4,5) (1,0)

Find distance through a number line.

Distance(Slope):

(5,-5)

Slope form:

y/x, Apply:

-5/5

Reduce:

-1/1 or -1

To find the y-intercept get x to be at zero and see where y ends. Let's use the point (1,0):

(1,0) use slope -1x to get x to zero:

= (0,1)

y-intercept: (0,1)

Now write in slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

so,

y = -1x + 1 or y = -x + 1 or y = -1/1x + 1
