Answer:-3
Step-by-step explanation:
y=3x+2................(1)
y=x-4......................(11)
Subtract (11) from (1)
y-y=3x-x+2-(-4)
0=2x+2+4
0=2x+6
Collect like terms
0-6=2x
-6=2x
Divide both sides by 2
-6/2=2x/2
-3=x
x=-3
I can only give possible combinations of the ages. This is because only the product is given. Had the sum of all ages been given, possible combinations would boil down into 1 combination.
3 kids with a youngest. This means that the ages are not the same.
We do prime factorization to get the age combination.
72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 = 9
9 ÷ 3 = 3
3 ÷ 3 = 1
1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
Possible combination with no repeating number.
1 x 8 x 9 = 72
2 x 4 x 9 = 72
4 x 6 x 3 = 72
1 x 6 x 12 = 72
Answer: That seems right. Maybe you didn't simplify. Then, it would be 8/11.
Step-by-step explanation:
32 Just add all the numbers up and divide by how many numbers there are (9).
Answer:
P = 12 + 5x
Step-by-step explanation:
P = a + b + c
P = 7 + (x + 4) + (4x + 1)
= 7 + x + 4 + 4x + 1
= 12 + 5x
