Number 1 wants you to set up proportions so four numbers equal to 2/1 would be: 6/3 8/4 10/5 12/6, and so on. I'm not sure what they're asking when they say the sum of the first two numbers is equal to 4.8

Answer:

The numbers are 1.92 , 3.84 , 4.80 , and 5.76 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be represented by 2x, 4x, 5x, and 6x. Then the given condition says

(6x+5x)-(4x+2x) = 4.8

11x-6x=4.8

5x=4.8

x=.96

Then the numbers are

2x = 1.92

4x = 3.84

5x = 4.80

6x = 5.76

Hope this helps!

Write as many equations as possible that could represent the relationship between the ages of the two children in each family de
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Here we have:

"In Family A, the youngest child is 7 years younger than the oldest, who is 18"

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

O = age of the oldest child.

Then we know that:

Y = O - 7

O = 18

Then we can replace the second equation into the first one:

Y = 18 - 7 = 11.

b) Here we have:

"In Family B, the middle child is 5 years older than the youngest child."

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

M = age of the middle child.

Here we have only one equation:

M = Y + 5.

What is the result of a dilation of scale factor 3 centered at the origin of the line 2y + 3x=10
romanna [79]

Answer:

(10, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the origin of the equation 2y+3x = 10, we need to get the x and y-intercept of the line.

x-intercept occurs at y = 0

If y = 0

2(0)+3x =10

3x =10

x = 10/3

x = 1.33

y-intercept occurs at x = 0

If x = 0

2y+3(0) =10

2y =10

y = 10/2

y = 5

Hence the coordinate at the origin is (10/3, 5). If this coordinate is dilated by 3, the required coordinate will be at (10/3*3, 5*3) = (10, 15)

Hence the required coordinate is (10, 15)
