Skyler's age is 72 and Kori's age is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: From the given details, form equations. Let the age of Skyler be x and that of Kori be 96 - x (since their sum is 96).
  • Step 2: Considering their ages 8 years ago, form equations.

⇒ (x - 8) = 4 (96 - x - 8)

⇒ (x - 8) = 4 (88 - x)

⇒ (x - 8) = 352 - 4x

⇒ 5x = 360

⇒ x = 72

  • Step 3: Calculate Kori's age

⇒ 96 - x = 24

Answer:

? = 26 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

?² = 24² + 10² = 576 + 100 = 676 ( take the square root of both sides )

? = \sqrt{676} = 26
