Bobby is 7 and his sister is 3.
Explanation : his dads age : 41
since his dads age is six more than, you would subtract 6 from 41 to get 35.
and since 35 is 5 times bobby’s age you would divide 35 by 5 to get 7
So bobby is 7.
bobby’s sister :
bobby’s age : 7
bobby’s little sisters age is one less than half of his age you subtract 1 from 7 and you would get 6
Now that it’s one less you have to find half so divide 6 by 2 and you’ll get 3
So bobby’s sister is 3.
bobby’s age : 41 - 6 = 35
35 (divided by) 5 = 7
bobby’s sister : 7 - 1 = 6
6 (divided by) 2 = 3
Answer:
x = 100
It is on a straight line and so, it equals to 180.
180 - 80 = 100
Answer:
D) $2.81
Step-by-step explanation:
3.8 x .74 = 2.81
Answer: the speed of the current is 9 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the current.
A boat can travel 21 mph in still water. If it travels 270 miles with the current. It means that the total speed with which the boat travelled with the current is (21 + x) mph.
Time = distance/speed
Time spent by the boat in travelling 270 miles is
270/(21 + x)
In the same length of time, it travels 108 miles against the current. It means that the total speed with which the boat travelled against the current is (21 - x) mph.
Time = distance/speed
Time spent by the boat in travelling 108 miles is
108/(21 - x)
Since the time is the same, then
270/(21 + x) = 108/(21 - x)
270(21 - x) = 108(21 + x)
5670 - 270x = 2268 - 108x
108x + 270x = 5670 - 2268
378x = 3402
x = 3402/378
x = 9
The answer is 7
hope this helps!
