Hi!
We know that Mr. Abraham’s wife is 6 years younger than him, which is 36-6, which means his wife is 30 years old.
We also know that Mr A’s son is 24 years younger than his wife, which is 30-24, which is 6.
As of right now, we now know that:
Mr. A is 36
Mr. A’s wife is 30
Mr. A’s son is 6
It’s asking for the ratio of Him:Wife:Son, so 36:30:6.
BUT, it’s asking for simplest form, so divide each of those numbers by 6.
Your answer is: 6:5:1
Answer:
s = -7.8
Step-by-step explanation:
from the question 12=10(s+4)+50
<u>first step</u>
open the bracket and evaluate for the value of s
12=10(s+4)+50
12 = 10s + 40 + 50
12 = 10s + 90
collect or combine the like terms
12-90 = 10s
-78 = 10s
divide both side by 10
-78/10 = 10s/10
-7.8 = s
therefor s = -7.8
Answer:
27 pages.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let l be the number of pages in the long paper and s be the number of pages in the short paper.
We have been given that the total number of pages for both papers is 40. We can represent this information in an equation as:

We are also told that the number of pages in the long paper is one more than two times the number of pages in the short paper. We can represent this information in an equation as:

We will use substitution method to solve system of linear equations.
From equation (1) we will get,

Upon substituting this value in equation (2) we will get,


Upon adding 2l to both sides of our equation we will get,



Let us divide both sides of our equation by 3 we will get,


Therefore, there must be 27 pages in the long paper.
175? you add how much she withdraws i think so lol
