Now,
G - Ginny's age.
P=G+8, Percy's age.
In 10 years,
G + 10 - Ginny's age in 10 years.
P+10 - Percy's age in 10 years.
<span> In ten years time Percy (P+10) will be three times Ginnys present age (3G).
P+10=3G
Now we have 2 equations, and we can write a system of equations.
</span>(1) P=G+8
(2) P+10=3G -------> G=(P+10)/3, we need to substitute it into equation 1.
( P=(P+10)/3+8) /*3
3P=P +10+24
2P = 34
P = 17
Percy is 17 years old now.
Check,
P=17, G=17-8=9
P+10=3G , 17+10=3*9, 27 = 27 True
If she got 9 messages last week and 3rimes as much this week then she got 27 messages because 9x3=27
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:

add 11 to both sides

Divide 4 on both sides

Take the square root of both sides to eliminate the power of two from x

Simplify

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can create a right triangle out of this information and then use right triangle trig to solve.
We are given the height of the triangle as the height of the tower which is 150m.
We are given the angle of inclination as the degree the tower makes with the ground which is 72.
From the angle of 72 degrees, which is also known as the reference angle, we have the side across from it (the height) and we are looking for the side adjacent to it (how far from the base of the tower the keys will land). Side opposite the reference angle over side adjacent to the reference angle is the tangent ratio:
and, solving for x,

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode to solve this. Divide 150 by the tan(72) and find that
x = 48.7 m
In the attached diagram you can see the graph of the function 
As you can see graph is:
1. increasing from x = −2 to x = −1
2. decreasing from x = 0 to x = 1
3. decreasing and then increasing from x=1 to x=2
4. increasing from x=2 to x=4.
Answer: correct choice is B.
