Let's say Jackson's age now is x.
In 20 years, (so 20+x), Jackson seven years ago will be 2/5ths of that age.
So 2/5(20+x)=x-7
Then you solve the equation
8+2/5x=x-7
15=3/5x
x=25
Jackson is 25 years old.
Let's check our answer! In 20 years, Jackson will be 45. 7 years ago, he was 18. 2/5 of 45 is 18. Our answer is correct!
Answer:
he must burn 294.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Just minus 305.5 from 600
600
305.5
is equal to 294.6
Answer:
I need a picture
Step-by-step explanation:
The horizontal distance from the firefighter at which the maximum height of water occurs is 10.83m
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
h(x) = -0.026x² + 0.563x + 3
where,
h(x) is the height of the water
Initial speed, u = 14m/s
angle, θ = 30°
(a)
Horizontal distance = ?
h(x) = ax² + bx + c
the vertex is found at x = -b/2a
where,
x = distance to the maximum height
As compared to the equation given:
a = -0.026
b = 0.563
Thus,

Therefore, horizontal distance from the firefighter at which the maximum height of water occurs is 10.83m
Answer: 0.6 in 10 % ; 0.4 in 15 %
Step-by-step explanation:
1. (x*10%) + (y*15%)/ x+y=12%
2. x+y = 1 x= 1-y
(0.1x + 0.15y/ x+y= 12/100) * 100
(10x + 15y/x+y = 12)*(x+y)
10x+15y= 12x + 12y
-2x=-3y
2x = 3y 2(1 - y)= 3y
2-2y=3y 2= 5y
y= 0.4
x= 0.6
