Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor between 32 and 80 is 16 not 8.  

32 (forwards) / 16 (teams) = 2 forwards on each team.

80 (guards) / 16 (teams) = 5 guards on each team.

Answer:

 Number of forwards = 32 ÷ 16 = 2    

Step-by-step explanation:

For finding the same number of guards and same number of forwards for each time we should first calculate highest common factor (HCF) of 80 guards and 32 forwards.

Thus, finding factors of 80 and 32:

80 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 5

32 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

Thus, HCF of 80 and 32 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16.

Hence, Number of guards = 80 ÷ 16 = 5

And, Number of forwards = 32 ÷ 16 = 2.

Answer:

The slopes of WX and XZ

Step-by-step explanation:

The singular factor that determines if the parallelogram is a rectangle are the angles at the edges

Mathematically, we can only have a rectangle if there are four right angles with one right angle each at the edges of the rectangle

So, by having the slope of the sides forming the width and that which forms the length, we can deduce if what we have is rectangle given that the slopes will yield a perpendicular product

Hence, the slopes of WX and XZ can be calculated to show this

Austin is 69 years younger than Jamie. 3 years ago, Jamie's age was 4 times Austin's age. How old is Austin now?
matrenka [14]

Answer: 26 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Create an equation with Austin as x and Jamie as x+69 (I just like workin with addition signs more)= 4(x-3)= x+69-3
  2. Simplify the equations --> 4x-12=x+66
  3. Solve the equation: 3x-12=66 --> 3x=78 --> x=26

This is the same as other age problems, just with the extra step of distributing the multiplication.
