In 20 years Mark will be three times as old as he was 10 years ago how old is he

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marizza181 [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Age of Mark is 25 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the current age of Mark = x years

After 20 years, age of Mark=(x+20) years

10 years ago,age of Mark was (x-10) years.

In 20 years Mark will be three times as old as he was 10 years ago.

=> \[(x+20) = 3*(x-10)\]

=> \[(x+20) = 3x-30\]

=> \[(3x-x) = 30+20\]

=> \[(2x) = 50\]

=> \[x = \frac{50}{2}\]

=> \[x = 25\]

The width of a rectangle is 9 inches Shorter than it's length.
m_a_m_a [10]
Divide 252 by 21.
21 times 12 = 252
12 is 9 units shorter than 21.
so the answer is 12 inches by 21 inches
you work backwards from the area
area = width times length
a = wl
we know w is 9 units shorter than the length
so now we have the equation 252=(l-9) times l
plug in 21 for l and then solve there is your answer.

5. A box in a supply room contains 15 compact fluorescent lightbulbs, of which 5 are rated 13-watt, 6 are rated 18-watt, and 4 a
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

176/1125 or 0.156

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 bulbs, of which 4 are 23-watt. The probability of selecting a 23-watt bulb = 4/15. If we call this probability x, then x = 4/15.

The probability of selecting a 13-watt or 18-watt bulb is the probability of not selecting a 23-watt bulb. If we call this y, y = (6+5)/15 = 11/15. It follows that x and y are mutually exclusive. Here, we have a binomial distribution.

The number of ways of selecting exactly two 23-watt bulbs out of three is

\binom{3}{2} = 3

The probability of selecting them is

3x^2y = 3\times\left(\dfrac{4}{15}\right)^2\times\dfrac{11}{15}=\dfrac{176}{1125}= 0.156
