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

What is the measure of the missing angle?
Arturiano [62]
Your missing angle will be 73 degrees, because the angles all add up to 180.  So you add 33 and 74 then subtract that from 180

Answer:

The WIP limit is 0.50 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Computation of WIP limits:

to begin with, it is required to compute the process and procedure efficiency which will be computed as follows:

Value Added Time = 12 days (arriving time)

Non-Value-Added Time = 12 days (departure time)

Efficiency = Value Added / (Value Added + Non-Value Added)

                = 12 / (12+12)

                = 12 / 24

               = 0.50 or 50%

the most obligatory throughput time will be 0.25 days to realize the profits

WIP limit = Throughput time / Efficiency  

               = 0.25 / 50%

               = 0.50 days.

The WIP limit is 0.50 days.

Which of the following represents 4x^5/6 in radical form
mash [69]
Remember, order of operations
exponent before multiply

so 4x^5/6=4 times x^5/6
simplify the x^5/6 first

remember
x^\frac{m}{n}=\sqrt[n]{s^m}

so
x^\frac{5}{6}=\sqrt[6]{x^5}

so
4x^\frac{5}{6}=4\sqrt[6]{x^5}
