let x is her brother's age

Kayla's age is 3 less than twice her brothers age: 2x - 3

and

Kayla is 13

so

2x - 3 = 13

add 3 to both sides

2x - 3 + 3 = 13 + 3

simplify

2x = 16

divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 16/2

x = 8


So her brother's age is 8 years old

proof:

2x - 3

= 2 (8) - 3

= 16 - 3

= 13

When Klorina swims with the current, she swims 10 km in 2 h. Against the current, she can swim only 8 km in the same time. How f
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Klorina's rate in still water is 4.5 km/h

Current's rate is 0.5 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x km/h = Klorina's rate in still water

y km/h = current's rate

<u>With the current (current helps):</u>

Distance = 10 km

Time = 2 hours

Rate = x + y km/h

10=2(x+y)

<u>Against the current:</u>

Distance = 8 km

Time = 2 hours

Rate = x - y km/h

8=2(x-y)

Divide both equations by 2:

x+y=5\\ \\x-y=4

Add these equations:

x+y+x-y=5+4\\ \\2x=9\\ \\x=4.5\ km/h

Subtract these two equations:

(x+y)-(x-y)=5-4\\ \\x+y-x+y=1\\ \\2y=1\\ \\y=0.5\ km/h

Opposite angles of parallelogram are equal.
sum of interior angles of parallelogram is 360 degrees.

Therefore,
A + B + C + D = 360
x + 145 + x + 145 = 360 
x = 35
Therefore angle C is 35 degrees
