Answer:
If the child is currently 6 years old and the mom is 42, in three years she'll be 45 and he'll be 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The son is y and the mom is x
x=7y
x+3=5(y+3)
7y+3=5y+15
7y=5y+12
2y=12
y=6
The value of the expression in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4
<h3>Vertex Form of a quadratic expression</h3>
Given the quadratic expressions
1.5x^2+6x+......
1.5(x^2 + 4x)
Using the completing the square method
The coefficient of x = 4
Half of the coefficient = 4/2 = 2
The square of the result = 2^2 = 4
The equation is expressed as:
f(x) = 1.5(x^2+4x+ 4) - 4
f(x) = 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4
Hence the value of the expression in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Cross Multiply</u>



<u>Step 2: Divide both sides by 4</u>


Answer: 
10% of the 50 were red.
10% * 50
(10/100) * 50
(1/10) * 50
= 5
5 were red.
