Answer:
X= -9
Y=7
Z=119
X=-70
Y=0.8
z=4.667
Step-by-step explanation:
X=-18-6= -24/3= -9
Y=24+11/5= 35/5= 7
Z=10+7=17*7=119
X=-2-5=-7*10=-70
Y=19-7=12/15=0.8
Z=-2+4=2*7=14/3=4.667
direct proportion y=kx , k is constant and k does not equal to 0.
17.5=k(21)
k=5/6
when x =39
y=5/6 ×39
y=32.5
The present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the present age of Jane be "x"
Let the present age of her sister be "y"
<em><u>Jane is 5 times older than her sister</u></em>
present age of Jane = 5(present age of her sister)
x = 5y ---------- eqn 1
<em><u>In 3 years, Jane’s sister will be 1/4 her age</u></em>
Age of sister after 3 years = 3 + y
Age of jane after 3 years = 3 + x
Age of sister after 3 years = 1/4(age of jane after 3 years)
Substitute eqn 1 in above equation
Substitute y = 9 in eqn 1
x = 5(9)
x = 45
Thus present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old
Answer: 13
Althoug each round trip takes 9 minutes and can carry 5 people on the boat, you can not just divide the 20 minutes time by 9 and multiply by 5 to find the number of people that are saved without getting wet.
First trip:
5 people take the boat to the island but only 4 can stay, because one has to return with the boat to the ship to rescue other 4 people.
So, when 9 minutes have passed, 4 people are safe on the island and the boat is again by the ship.
Second trip:
In the second trip, other 4 people are rescued,along with "sailor" who returned in the boat to rescue them.
When it has passed 18 minutes, the boat is next to the ship agin to carry other 4 people before the boat sinks.
This is the last trip before the boat sinks. So, the total number of passengers rescued is 4 + 4 + 5 = 13
