Answer: Albert's grand father is 50 years older that Albert this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Albert's age this year.

Let x represent Albert's grandfather age this year.

This year Albert and his grandfather's ages total to 64 years. This means that

x + y = 64- - - -- - - - - -1

In 3 years, Albert's grandfather will be 6 times as old. This means that

y + 3 = 6(x + 3)

y + 3 = 6x + 18

y = 6x + 18 - 3

y = 6x + 15

Substituting y = 6x + 15 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 6x + 15 = 64

7x = 64 - 15 = 49

x = 49/7

x = 7

y = 6x + 15 = 6 × 7 + 15

y = 57

The difference between their ages is 57 - 7 = 50 years

Which expression is equivalent to (4x^3y^5)(3x^5y)^2 ?
barxatty [35]

(3x^5y)^2=

3^2=9

(x^5)^2=x^10

y^2=y^2

(3x^5y)^2=9x^10y^2

9x^10y^2(4x^3y^5)=

9*4=36

x^10*x^3=x^13

y^2*y^5=y^7

9x^19y^2(4x^3y^5)= 36x^13y^7

Final answer: 36x^13y^7

After getting 5 new rocks, George gave half of his rock collection to Susan. If George gave Susan 36 rocks, which equation could
White raven [17]

Answer:

1/2 (x+5) = 36  should be the equation that is used to determine how many rocks George started with.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number of rocks George had.

As George gave, after getting 5 new rocks, half of his rock collection to Susan which is = 36 rocks

It means after getting 5 new rocks George's total rocks = 72

Given that he gave half collection to Susan = 36

Thus, before inducting 5 new rocks Georg's total rocks were = 67

Thus,

1/2 (x+5) = 36 should be the correct equation.

solving

1/2 (x+5) = 36

Multiplying both sides by 2

1/2 (x+5) × 2 = 36 × 2

x+5 = 72

x = 72 - 5

x = 67

Thus, before getting 5 new rocks, the number of rocks George had = 67

Therefore,

1/2 (x+5) = 36  should be the equation that is used to determine how many rocks George started with.
