Mathematics

Nata [24]3 years ago

Answer: 56 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Adam's age be x , since the father is 3 times as old as him , then the father will be 3x.

Two years ago

Adam = x - 2

Father = 3x - 2

since Adam was 15 years old 2 years ago , this means that

x-2=15

add 2 to both sides

x = 17

Therefore , Adam is presently 17 years old , then the father will be 3(17) years , which means that the father is presently 51 years old.

In 5 years time , the father will be 51 + 5 years old. That is , the father will be 56 years old in 5 years time

kari74 [83]

Answer:

x=34

Step-by-step explanation:

1. formula for Pythagorean Theorem for right trangles is <u>a^2+b^2=c^2</u>

2. a=30 and b=16, so (30)^2+(16)^2=c^2

3. (30)^2=900 and (16)^2=256

4. 900+256=1156

5. 1156=c^2

6. \sqrt{1156} =\sqrt{c^2}

7. the square root of 1156 is 34, so c=34

8. The missing side of the triangle, labeled as "x<em>"</em> is 34
