Answer:

  Mark is 18; his mother is 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 6 years, 12 years will be added to the total of their ages, so it will be 72. Since this is the total of Mark's age and twice Mark's age, his age at that time will be 72/3 = 24. His mother will be 48 at that time.

Now, they are 6 years younger than that, so they are 18 and 42.

Liliana use for dark power crystals to raise 14 zombie soldiers she wants to know how many zombie soldiers Z she can race with 1
laiz [17]

Answer:

140 zombies

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a proportions problem and we are given three values and a variable we must solve for which is the number of zombie soldiers she can raise (z) with 10 dark power crystals. Therefore, we can use the rule of three to solve for this, in which we multiply the diagonal values and divide by the last remaining value in order to solve for the variable like so...

1 crystal <===>  14 zombies

10 crystals  <===>   Z zombies

(10 * 14) / 1 = 140 zombies

A ship is carrying gold bars and silver bars in the ratio 13:17. The ship's load
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Using proportions, considering the weight of each bar and the ratio, it is found that the ship is carrying 52 gold bars.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

Each bar weighs 5 kg, and the total weight is of 600 kg, hence the number of bars is given by:

n = 600/5 = 120.

The proportion of gold bars is given by:

p = 13/(13 + 17) = 13/30

Hence, out of 120 bars, the number of gold bars is given by:

nG = 120 x 13/30 = 4 x 13 = 52.
