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

The surface area of the first figure is 160.
The net of the second figure is attached, and the surface area is 408.

To find the surface area of the first figure, we find the area of the base:
10*10 = 100

Now we find the area of each of the 4 lateral faces (triangles):
A=1/2bh = 1/2(3)(10) = 15

The total is 100+15(4) = 160

To find the surface area of the second figure, find the area of the bases (triangles):
A=1/2bh = 1/2(6)(8)= 24

The area of the bottom lateral face is 15*6 = 90.
The area of the slanted lateral face is 15*10 = 150.
The area of the vertical lateral face is 15*8 = 120.

Together we have 24(2) + 90 + 150 + 120  = 408.

Rewrite the quadratic function in intercept or factored form<br> y=4x^2-19x-5
damaskus [11]

Answer:

y = (x - 5)(4x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function y = 4x^2 -19x - 5

Here we have to find the AC method.

Identify the value of A, B and C

A = 4 ,  B = -19 and C = -5

AC = 4*-5 = -20

Now find the facotr -20 such that when we add those two factors, we have to get the value of B. That is B = -19

Factors are -20 and 1

1 * -20 = -20

1 + (-20) = -19

y = 4x^2 -19x - 5

This can be written using the factors

y = 4x^2 - 20x + 1x - 5

Now let's factor by group the first two terms, then second two terms.

y = 4x (x - 5) + 1(x - 5)

y = (x - 5)(4x + 1)

That's the answer.

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.

How to use the distributive property to have an equivalent expression
vova2212 [387]

Using distributive property, factor out the coomon term to get the equivalent expression

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let us first understand about distributive property

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

The distributive property can be represented as:

a(b + c) = ab + bc

Let us consider a expression

30 + 5x

We have to write a equivalent expression

Use the distributive property

30 = 6 x 5

Thus 30 + 5x becomes,

30 + 5x = 6 \times 5 + 5x

Factor out 5 from above expression

30 + 5x = 6 \times 5 + 5x = 5(6+x)

Thus, equivalent expression is 5(6 + x) for 30 + 5x

PLEASE HELP Use the graph to find domain and range minimum maximum increasing decreasing X intercept Y intercept and find f(6)
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Answer is long, so Ill put it in the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain: -∞ ≤ x ≤ ∞ (x goes infinitely in both directions)

Range: -∞ ≤ y ≤ 1 (infinite number of negative points, or going down, but stops at positive 1 going up)

y intercept: (0,0) (where the function meets the y-axis)

x-intercepts: (0,0) and (4,0) (where the function meets the x-axis)

minimum: -∞ ( doesnt have a lowest point, essentially there isnt one)

maximum: y = 1 (this is the highest point of the function)

f(6) = -3 (this is asking: when x = 6, what does y equal?)

This parabola is decreasing (it opens downwards)
