A = (350/13) and B = (400/-13)
Let x = Parent's age now y = son's age now
Then, x-5 = parent's age five years ago
y-5 = son's age five years ago
So, x-5 = 5(y-5)
Simplify to get x - 5y = -20
Parent's age 8 years from now = x+8
Son's age 8 years from now = y+8
So, x+8 = 3(y+8)
Simplifying, we have x - 3y = 16
We have the system of equations: x - 5y = -20
x - 3y = 16
Subtract the equations to obtain -2y = -36
y = 18
x = 70
Parent is 70 years old and the son is 18 years old.
Answer:
glasses of milk=4
quatar pounds servings of meat =5
two slices of whole grains bread =8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let m= milk
r=meat
b=bread
0.1m+3.4r+2.2b=35 (1)
8.5m+22r+10b=224 (2)
m+20r+12b=200 (3)
Multiply (1) by 85 and (2) by 1
8.5m+289r+187b=2,975 (4)
8.5m+22r+10b=224 (5)
Subtract (5) from (4)
267r+177b=2,751 (6)
Recall,
8.5m+22r+10b=224 (2)
m+20r+12b=200 (3)
Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 8.5
8.5m+22r+10b=224 (7)
8.5m+170r+102b=1700 (8)
Subtract (7) from (8)
148r+92b=1,476 (9)
Recall,
267r+177b=2,751 (6) and
148r+92b=1,476 (9)
Multiply (6) by 148 and (9) by 267
26196b=407,148 (10)
24564b=394,092 (11)
Subtract (11) from (10)
1,632b=13,056
Divide both sides by 1,632
b=13,056/1,632
b=8
Substitute the value of b in (9)
148r+92b=1,476 (9)
148r+92(8)=1,476
148r+736=1,476
148r=1,476-736
148r=740
Divide both sides by 148
r=740/148
r= 5
Substitute the value of b and r in (1)
0.1m+3.4r+2.2b=35 (1)
0.1m+3.4(5)+2.2(8)=35
0.1m+17+17.6=35
0.1m+34.6=35
0.1m=35-34.6
0.1m=0.4
Divide both sides by 0.1
m=0.4/0.1
m=4
4 glasses of milk, 5 quatar pounds servings of meat and 8 two slices of whole grains bread will supply the required nutrients.
The distance formula is: d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 )
For this problem, let (-5, -4) be the "first" point, so x1 = -5 and y2 = -4
and let (-6, 4) be the "second" point, so x2 = -6 and y2 = 4.
Then: d = sqrt( (-6 - -5)2 + (4 - -4)2 ) = sqrt( (-1)2 + (8)2 ) = sqrt( 1 + 64 ) = sqrt( 65)
The distance formula is just the Pythagorean Theorem applied to an x-y graph.
You would get the same final answer if you let (-5, -4) be the second point and (-6, 4) be the first point.
To round this we have to go to the thousands place since the thousands place in this question is 8 its closer to 10 so the answer is 10k or 10,000
