Bethany, Lauren, Amanda, and David all meet at a family reunion. They are comparing their ages. They have found that Lauren is 1

3 years older than Bethany and David is 11 years older than Amanda. They also found that the product of Bethany's and Lauren's ages is equal to twice Amanda's age. Also, if they subtract 20 years from both Bethany's and Lauren's age, the product is equal to David's age.
If x represents Bethany's age and y represents Amanda's age, then which of the following systems of equations can be used to determine the ages of all four family members based on their findings?

Lauren =l
David=d
Bethany's =x
Amanda =y
l=x+13
d=y+11
lx=2y
<span>(x+13)x=2y
</span>2y=x^2+13x
y= \frac{1}{2}(x^2+13x)
or
y= \frac{x^2}{2}+ \frac{13}{2}x
(x-20)(l-20)=d
<span>(x-20)(x+13-20)=y+11 </span><span>
</span>y+11=(x-20)(x-7)
y+11=x^2-27x+140
y=x^2-27x+129
so I believe its b
Hope this helps :)

Which expression is equivalent??? help!
dexar [7]

Answer:

The equivalent expression for the given expression \sqrt[3]{256x^{10}y^{7} } is

4x^{3} y^{2}(\sqrt[3]{4xy} )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\sqrt[3]{256x^{10}y^{7} }

Solution:

We will see first what is Cube rooting.

\sqrt[3]{x^{3}} = x

Law of Indices

(x^{a})^{b}=x^{a\times b}\\and\\x^{a}x^{b} = x^{a+b}

Now, applying above property we get

\sqrt[3]{256x^{10}y^{7} }=\sqrt[3]{(4^{3}\times 4\times (x^{3})^{3}\times x\times (y^{2})^{3}\times y   )} \\\\\textrm{Cube Rooting we get}\\\sqrt[3]{256x^{10}y^{7} }= 4\times x^{3}\times y^{2}(\sqrt[3]{4xy}) \\\\\sqrt[3]{256x^{10}y^{7} }= 4x^{3}y^{2}(\sqrt[3]{4xy})

∴ The equivalent expression for the given expression \sqrt[3]{256x^{10}y^{7} } is

4x^{3} y^{2}(\sqrt[3]{4xy} )

In triangle ABC, (angle A) is a right angle and (m angle B) = 45deg.
Ratling [72]
We can use the ratios for special triangles (see the attachment below). We'll be using the 45-45-90 triangle. We notice that side BC is equal to x \sqrt{2}, and side AC (x using the special right triangle) is equal to 16. We can therefore say that side BC is equal to 16 \sqrt{2} ft

HELP NEEDED!<br><br> Evaluate: 8 + -12 - -12/2
svp [43]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

because if 8+-12= about-4 so if you have a negative number plus a positive it equals a negative number then you have -4 minus -12 equals a positive is 8 because if its negative and negative it equals a positive number then you have 8/2 and it equals 4 because that slash is a divided sign all together it is 8+-12-(-12)/2=2
