Oh my goodness ! You were doing such an absolutely beautiful job,
as far as you went, but then you ran into some rough road and quit.
You've got the correct expressions for the ages of the three people:
-- Will . . . w
-- Ben . . . w+3
-- Jan . . . 2(w+3)
You slipped up when you expanded Jan's age: 2(w+3) = <u>2w + 6</u> ,
and it was all down hill from there.
Let's do it again, together:
-- Will . . . w
-- Ben . . . w + 3
-- Jan . . . 2w + 6
Total: (w + w + 2w) + (3 + 6) = 4w + 9
So the equation is: <em><u>4w + 9 = 41</u></em>
Now you're supposed to solve it.
Subtract 9 from each side: 4w = 32
Divide each side by 4: <u>w = 8</u>
-- Will = w . . . . . 8 y.o.
-- Ben = w+3 . . . 11 y.o.
-- Jan = 2(w+3) . . 22 y.o.
When will Jan be twice as old as Will ?
That'll happen in 'x' years.
At that time, Will will be (8+x) and Jan will be (22+x),
and her age will be double Will's age.
22 + x = 2(8 + x)
22 + x = 16 + 2x
Subtract 'x' from each side: 22 = 16 + x
Subtract 16 from each side: <em> 6 = x</em>
<u>Check:</u>
In 6 years, Jan will be (22+6) = 28,
and Will will be (8+6) = 14 .
28 = twice as old as 14. yay!
Can I make a little suggestion ?
I'm going to make it anyway:
Your problem was neatness.
You were doing great work in that big open space on the sheet, but it
started to get ragged. When you tried to look back to see if you made
a mistake, you couldn't find it in the mess.
This is not an easy problem, but you definitely know your stuff.
I think if you keep it a little neater, you're going to sparkle !
For this case we can propose an equation that will allow us to find the price of one of the books knowing the price of the other.
x: Let the variable that represents the price of the book with a green sticker
y: Let the variable that represents the price of the book with a yellow sticker
According to the statement we have:
Finally, we can substitute the price of one of the books and clear the value of the other as the case may be.
Answer:
Answer:
1 hour and 5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe is C and D because
C. The original rectangle width is 2m and the length is 4m. And to make the other rectangle they are adding .5 m to both the width and length
D. The original rectangle has a width of 2m and length of 4m. To make the other rectangle they are substracting 1 m from the width and length
Answer:
<u>108°</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula :
<u>Degree Measure = Arc length / radius x 180/π</u>
Solving :
Degree Measure = 3π/5 x 180/π
Degree Measure = 3 x 36
Degree Measure = <u>108°</u>
