I= Ishaan's age= 2C
C= Christopher's age

35 years ago means we have to subtract 35 from their current age. Ishaan minus 35 equals 7 times Christopher minus 35 years.

CHRISTOPHER'S AGE:
I - 35= 7(C-35)
substitute I=2C in for I
multiply 7 by all in parenthesis

2C - 35= 7C - 245

add 35 to both sides
2C= 7C - 210

subtract 7C from both sides
-5C = -210

divide both sides by -5

C= 42 Christopher's age


ISHAAN'S AGE:
I= 2C
substitute C=42 to find Ishaan's age
I= 2(42)

I= 84 Ishaan's age

CHECK:
Substitute answers in original equation

I - 35= 7(C-35)
84 - 35= 7(42-35)
49= (7*42)+(7*-35)
49= 294-245
49=49

Hope this helps! :)

If x2 = 10, what is the value of x?

If you mean x^2 then there would be no answer after all, 3^2= 9 and 4^2= 16 so

If you mean 2x then the answer would be 5

The manager of a warehouse would like to know how many errors are made when a product’s serial number is read by a bar-code read
maw [93]
<span>In order to determine the total number of errors that were made by the bar code scanner, we first have to calculate how many total scans were made. Because there were six items scanned 1,000 times each, there were 6,000 total scans made. Next, we have to add up the total number of errors made by each item (36+14+21+39+11+2). As a result, there were a total of 123 errors made during the 6,000 scans.</span>

How do you find an angle in a triangle with the length of the sides?
stepan [7]

Answer:

To find the area of a triangle you multiply the base times height then divide that number by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Say I had a triangle who's base was 7in and the height was 12in.

Then you multiply 7 times 12=84in

Then divide 84 by 2 which would equal 42
