Total age 
<span>6 * 27 </span>
<span>162 </span>

<span>Subtotal age of first 4 </span>
<span>4 * 23 </span>
<span>92 </span>

<span>Subtotal of last 3 </span>
<span>3 * 34 </span>
<span>102 </span>

<span>In the total of the first 4 and last 3 </span>
<span>the 4th person has been counted twice. </span>
<span>This second time must be subtracted. </span>

<span>Therefor </span>
<span>92 + 102 - x = 162 </span>
<span>194 - x = 162 </span>

<span>Subtract 194 from both sides </span>
<span>-x = -32 </span>

<span>Multiply both sides by -1 </span>
<span>x = 32

6.213 as a mixed number would be 6 and 213/1000.

all you do to convert it to a mixed number is look at how many numbers are after the decimal.

since theres 3 numbers, that means it would be in the thousands place

The equation for the line g can be written as x-y=9. Line h is parallel to line g and passes through (4,5). What is the equation
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

y = x+1

Step-by-step explanation

The equation in slope intercept form is expressed as y = MX+c

m a the slope

Get the slope of the line

Given the line x-y =9

-y = -x+9

y = x-9

Slope of the line is 1

Since it is parallel to the given line, the slope o the required line is also 1

Substitute m = 1 adnd (4,5) into the point slope form

y-y0 =m(x-x0)

y - 5 = 1(x-4)

y-5 = x-4

y= x-4+5

y = x+1

Hence the required equation is y = x+1

Vanessa wants to determine the perimeter around her garden. She makes an small model of her garden and combines all the sides: 3
son4ous [18]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

since it's all addition, we can remove the parentheses

3x + x + 10 + 5x + 2x + 2 = 56

Now we combine like terms

3x+x+5x+2x+10+2=56

11x+12=56

We subtract both sides by 12 to get,

11x=44

now we divide both sides by 11

x=\frac{44}{11}

x=4
