The present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, a father is now 38 years older than his son

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Let "x" be the age of son now

Therefore, from given,

Father age now = 38 + age of son now

Father age now = 38 + x

<em><u>Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son</u></em>

Age of son ten years ago = age of son now - 10

Age of son ten years ago = x - 10

Age of father ten years ago = 38 + x - 10

Then we get,

Age of father ten years ago = twice the age of son ten years ago

38 + x - 10 = 2(x - 10)

28 + x = 2x - 20

2x - x = 28 + 20

x = 48

Thus son age now is 48 years old

Father age now = x + 38 = 48 + 38 = 86

Thus present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

Complete the Table
lianna [129]

Answer:

a= 6

b = 7

c = 8

d = 7

e = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the bike is 6 feet above the ground to start with, so when it starts rolling, the green dot is exactly 6 feet from the ground, which gives a=6

when the distance covered by the bike is \frac{\pi}{2}, (see first red dot in the attached image), the position of the green dot is exactly 1 foot added to 6 ft= 7 feet

so b = 7

when the distance covered is \pi, now the green dot would be at the top of the wheel (second red dot in the attached image) which involves adding 2 feet to the original 6 feet. That is: c = 8

when the distance covered is \frac{3\pi}{2}, the green dot is at the position of the third red dot in the attached image., that it exactly one foot added to 6 feet = 7 ft which gives the value of d = 7

and finally, when the distance covered is 2\pi. the green dot has completed a full circle and is now again in its lower position (nothing - zero) added to 6 feet =  6ft, giving e = 6.

Karen batting average was 0.444 She was at bat 45 times.how many hits did she get?
Simora [160]
<span>Karen got an average of 0.444 hits out of 45 bats.
We need to find the number of hits did Karen got.
=> 45 bats all in all
=> 0.444 average hits
x = how many hit did she get
Now, let’s multiply the total bats to Karen’s average hit:
=> 45 x 0.444 …. (repeating decimals)
=>  20
Therefore, Karen hit 20 times out of 45 bats
Let’s check our answer:
=> 20 / 45
=> 0.44444…. (repeating decimals)
