Answer:
24 and 48
Today, the son is 24 years old, and the father is 48 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 10) + (2x - 10) = 52
3x + 20 = 52
3x = 72
x = 24
The father is 2 times his son's age.
2x
= 2(24)
= 48
So, the son is 24 and the father is 48.
10 years ago, son was 14 and father was 38, if added, this adds up to 52, so we know our calculations are correct.

Answer:
v = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
p = 8/v and p = 1/2. Equating these two, we get 8/v = 1/2.
Inverting both sides, we get v/8 = 2.
Find the vaue of v by multiplying both sides by 8: v = 16
The problem deals with fractions comparison, lets do it:
21/30 > 2/3
we begin solving:
21 > (2/3)*30
21 > 2*10
<span>21 > 20
</span>therefore the proposed inequality is true, <span>21/30 > 2/3
You can solve as well getting same denominator for both fractions and comparing directly, in this case we need to get 2/3 to be divided by 30:
2/3 = (10/10)(2/3) = 20/30
So we have:
</span><span>21/30 > 2/3
</span>which is equal to:
<span>21/30 > 20/30
</span>and we compare directly because both fractions are divided by the same number, and we can see that the inequality is true.
