Answer:
6 years
Step-by-step explanation:
So each person's age can be represented as a linear equation, since each year our age increases by 1. It can be represented in the slope-intercept form: y=mx+b. The slope in this case is going to be 1, since the time is going to be years, and each year everyone's age goes up by 1 (of course if you're still alive...) and y-intercept in this case represents their current age.
So the father can be represented as: y=x+38
The sons can be represented as: y = x+13 and y=x+5
The daughter can be represented as: y=x+8
So adding up all his children you get:
(x+13)+(x+5)+(x+8)
This gives you the equation:
3x+26
Now set this equal to the father's age to solve for x (in this context it's years)
3x+26=x+38
Subtract from both sides
2x+26=38
Subtract 26 from both sides
2x=12
Divide both sides by 2
x=6
So in 6 years the father will be the same age as his children put together
Percent of juice is 18.7% or 19%:

Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
78 - 6 = 72 (Since the number falls short by six)
72 ÷ 9 = 8 (Number times 9 that equals 72)
General equation: a = k*b^2
Specifically: 10 = k*(3)^2 = 9 k
Solving for k: k = 10/9
Then a = (10/9)b^2. If b = 9, then a = (10/9)(9)^2 = 90 (answer)
