Answer:

1:12:4

Step-by-step explanation:

a = alex's age

g = george's age

c = carl's age

g = a - 12

c = 3a

a + g + c = 68

(substitution) a + a - 12 + 3a = 68

5a = 80

a = 16

g = 4

c = 48

4:48:16 (divide all by 4)

1:12:4

Answer:

1:4:12

Step-by-step explanation:

George = x

Alex = 12 + x

Carl = 3(12 + x) = 36 + 3x

x + 12 + x + 36 + 3x = 68

5x + 48 = 68

5x = 20

x = 4

George = x = 4

Alex = 12 + x = 12 + 4 = 16

Carl = 36 + 3x = 36 + 3(4) = 48

4:16:48 = 1:4:12

The ratio is 1:4:12.

U-haul rents a truck for $49.95 + $.75 per mile. ABC Truck Rental rents the same truck for $59.95 and $.50 per mile. The equatio
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:  40 miles

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent the number of miles and y represent the total cost

U-Haul: y = 0.75x + 49.95

ABC:     y = 0.50x + 59.95

Use substitution method to solve for x:

0.75x + 49.95 = 0.50x + 59.95

0.25x + 49.95 =              59.95         <em>subtracted 0.50x from both sides</em>

0.25x               =              10.00          <em>subtracted 49.95 from both sides</em>

                   x   =    40                        <em>divided 0.25 from both sides</em>

Maybe you can do 8 divided by 2 would equal 4 or you can do equations that equal 8.

Find the exact perimeter of the triangle.<br>A.68 sqrt(x)<br>B.sqrt(68x)<br>C.5x+x sqrt(17)<br>D.68x
blondinia [14]
Hypotenuse²= (4x)²+ x²=16x²+x²=17x²

Hypotenuse=√(17x²)= x√17
To find perimeter, we need to add all sides
P=x+4x+ x√17 =5x+x√17 =x(5+√17)
