Let Mary's age be x.

Paul is three times as old as Mary, so Paul's age would be 3x.

Peter is four times as old as Mary, so Peter's age would be 4x.

The sum of their ages is 64
⇒ Paul's age+ Peter's age+ Mary's age= 64
⇒ 3x+ 4x+ x= 64
⇒ 8x= 64
⇒ x= 64/8
⇒ x= 8

Paul's age is: 3x= 3*8= 24

Peter's age is: 4x= 4*8= 32

Final answer: Paul is 24 years old.
Peter is 32 years old.
Mary is 8 years old.

Hope this helps~

Find the perimeter of the figure to the nearest hundredth. Sorry to ask ANOTHER question on this stuff but I'm doing an assignme
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

I did my best, but it has been a while. I really hope that this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

so you can find the perimeter of a circle

-----The perimeter of a circle is π × d where d is the diameter so half of that is 1/2 π × d. But If you are going to walk around a semicircle, you need to go halfway around the circle and then across a diagonal to get back to where you started, so the perimeter is 1/2 π × d + d.

How are piecewise functions and infinite limits alike? How are they different?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: i got 100% on the journal activity on EDGE with this “ The difference of piecewise functions and infinite limits is the graphs, with piecewise functions you're graphing several equations... when looking at a graph with an infinite limit there is a difference. A similarity they do have is their end points.” I haven’t been paying attention at all so this I made this up and some how it works(?!)

Step-by-step explanation: I’m not sure if it’s even correct but it worked as a response!
