Let x = Parent's age now y = son's age now
Then, x-5 = parent's age five years ago
y-5 = son's age five years ago
So, x-5 = 5(y-5)
Simplify to get x - 5y = -20
Parent's age 8 years from now = x+8
Son's age 8 years from now = y+8
So, x+8 = 3(y+8)
Simplifying, we have x - 3y = 16
We have the system of equations: x - 5y = -20
x - 3y = 16
Subtract the equations to obtain -2y = -36
y = 18
x = 70
Parent is 70 years old and the son is 18 years old.
Answer:
A. 9
Step-by-step explanation:
So, she has 460 beads, and each braclet she makes requires 50 beads.
Therefore we will divide these numbers to get 9.2. This rounds to A. 9.\

Answer:number of cupcakes sold is 13
Number of cookies sold is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of cupcakes that Jane sold.
Let y represent the number of cookies that Jane sold.
Each cupcake sold for $2.25 and each cookie sold for $0.50. At the end of the day, Jean had sold $42.75 worth of cookies and cupcakes.
This means that
2.25x + 0.5y = 42.75 - - - - - - - - - -1
she sold 40 cupcakes and cookies combined, it means that
x + y = 40
Substituting x = 40 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2.25(40 - y) + 0.5y = 42.75
90 - 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75
- 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75 - 90
- 1.75y = - 47.25
y = - 47.35/-1.75
y = 27
x = 40 - y
x = 40-27 = 13

Answer:
The answer to your question is letter B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Center = (-10, 6)
radius = 8
Process
1.- To find the answer to your question just substitute the values in the standard form of the circle.
Equation
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
h = -10
k = 6
r = 8
Substitution
(x + 10)² + (y - 6)² = 8²
Simplification
(x + 10)² + (y - 6)² = 64
