Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the details :

Kofi is older than kweku

kofi's age = (5x-4) years

kweku's age = (2x+1) years

a. write down an expression, interns of x,for how much old is Kofi than kweku

Equate the ages of Kofi and kweku

(5x - 4) = (2x + 1)

5x - 4 = 2x + 1

5x - 2x = 1 + 4

3x = 5

3x - 5

B.) if Kofi is tens years older than kweku, find the value of x and the ages of Kofi and kweku

Then,

(5x-4) = (2x + 1) + 10

5x - 4 = 2x + 1 + 10

5x - 2x = 1 + 10 + 4

3x = 15

x = 5

Kofi's age : 5x - 4

5(5) - 4 = 25 - 4 = 21 years

Kweku's age : (2x + 1)

2(5) + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11 years

What is the domain of the function given below
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

c. [-1, infinity)

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain the interval or set of valid x values (while the range is the same for the valid y values).

what is the smallest value of x we see for the graph ?

for x values we need to look left and right.

and the more left the value, the smaller it is.

so, in other words, what is the left-most x value e can find ?

x = -1

that is the "starting point" of the function. there is no functional value for any smaller x.

and then clearly, the function goes on and on to the right without any boundary in sight. so, it keeps going to the right in all eternity, that means it goes to infinity.

therefore the answer.

keep in mind that "infinity" is not a number, only a concept. so, when writing "infinity" at an interval end, it is not included (and we use a round bracket).

Sophia buys a supply of toilet paper from costco that comes in a pack 36. She immediately gives 4 rolls of toilet paper to her s
liraira [26]

I believe she will have 8 rolls of toilet paper left after one year.

She started with 36, then gave away 4, so then she would have 32 left for herself, then she used 2 every month so if you deduct 2 rolls every month for 12 months she would use 24 in one year. So 32-24 is 8.

Scarlett knits 2 centimeters of scarf each night. How many nights will
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

3 nights

Step-by-step explanation:

let n equal the number of nights

6 = 2n  ---> 6 cm = 2 cm x the number of nights

6/2 = 2n/2 ---> divide both sides of the equation to isolate n

3 = n ---> number of nights equals 3

6 is the number of centimeters needed divided by 2 the number of centimeters per night which would give you the number of nights.
