Suzy is ten years older than Belly, and the next year she will be twice as old as Billy. How old are they now? Show solution.
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

I understand there is a typo, so Belly and Billy are the same person. His age is represented as B, and Suzy's as S.

S = 19

B = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Suzy is ten years older than Belly:

(1)  S = B + 10

the next year she will be twice as old as Billy

(2)  S + 1 = 2 (B + 1)

solving the system of equation (1) and (2):

Making (2) - (1):  

1 = 2 (B + 1) - B - 10 => 1 = 2 B + 2 - B - 10  => 1 = B - 8 => B = 9

replacing in (1) S = 19

Romashka [77]

Answer:

4.5 inches

20.25= length²

length = 4.5 inches

A sporting goods store is having a 15% off sale on all items. Which functions can be used to find the sale price of an item that
asambeis [7]
The answers are: 
<span>ƒ(x) = x - .15x
</span><span>Sale = Original - .15(Original)
</span><span>y = .85x

Let sale price be f(x) and x be the original price. Discount was 15% = 0.15
f(x) = x - 0.15x

If f(x) is sale and x is the original, then:
</span><span>Sale = Original - .15(Original)

Let sale price be y and original price x:
y = x - 0.15x
y = 1 * x - 0.15 * x
y = (1 - 0.15) * x
y = 0.85x</span>
