Answer:

Jacob's age is 42

Jasmine's age is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jacob's age be x

Let Jasmine's age be y

x + y = 66

x - 6 = 2(y - 6)

x - 6 = 2y - 12

x - 2y = -12 + 6

x - 2y = -6

x + y = 66 ------- (1)

x - 2y = -6 ------- (2)

From (1),

x = 66 - y -------- (3)

Substitute the value of x in (2)

x - 2y = -6

66 - y - 2y = -6

-3y = -6 - 66

-3y = -72

y = -72/-3

y = 24

Solve for x in (1)

x + y = 66

x + 24 = 66

x = 66 - 24 = 42

x = 42, y = 24

27, first you take 66-12 bc that is both of their ages, and then I divided that by 2 since it’s twice jasmines age. Hope this helps and would appreciate a Brainly :)

Answer:

Angle A = Angle T

Angle B = Angle U

Angle C = Angle V

Step-by-step explanation:

The order that the angles are listed above shows you which angle in the first triangle corresponds to which angle in the other triangle.  It tells you triangle ABC = triangle TUV.  Since A and T are both listed first, they are equivalent.  Angles B and U are both listed second, so they correspond to each other.  And angles C and V are listed last, so they correspond to each other.

Is |-4| equal to |4|?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value measures the distance between the number and 0. The distance between -4 and 0 is 4, and the distance between 0 and 4 is 4. Therefore, they are equal.

I need answers to 60, 62, 64
laiz [17]
Problem 60) The only natural number is the number 62 (assuming the number is 62 and not some decimal value;it's impossible to tell because it appears to be cut off). Recall that the set of natural numbers is the set {1, 2, 3, 4, ...} which is synonymous with the set of counting numbers.

------------------------------------------------

Problem 62) Irrational numbers are numbers that we CANNOT write as fractions of whole numbers. In this case, pi is irrational and so is sqrt(17)

It is impossible to write pi as a ratio of two integers (in the form p/q where q is nonzero). The same applies to sqrt(17).

------------------------------------------------

Problem 64)

There are two nonnegative integers and they are: 0 and 62 (keeping with the same assumption made back in problem 60 above). All you do here is list whole numbers that aren't negative.

Help with MATH please
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4). By applying cosine rule for angle R,

    cos(∠R) = \frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

    cos(33°) = \frac{x}{19} [Equation]

    x = 19cos(33°)

       = 8.39

5). By applying sine rule,

    cos(20°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

    cos(20°) = \frac{15}{x} [Equation]

    x = \frac{15}{\text{cos}20}

    x = 15.96

6). By applying tangent rule,

    tan(40°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

    tan(40°) = \frac{15}{x} [Equation]

     x = \frac{15}{\text{tan}40}

     x = 17.88
