Answer:

20 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the husband's age is h and the wife's age is w.

The average of two numbers is their sum divided by 2. So, the average age of the husband and wife is:

(h + w)/2 = 30

We know that h = 40, so plug this into the equation above:

(40 + w)/2 = 30

40 + w = 2 * 30 = 60

w = 60 - 40 = 20

Thus, the wife is 20 years old.

In matrix theory, many of the familiar properties of the real number system are not valid. If a and b are real numbers, then ab
kozerog [31]

Answer:

B=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0\\0&1\\\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do the multiplication AB.

If A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&0\\\end{array}\right]

then the first row of A is= (1 0) by the first column of B= (0 0) is equal to zero.

the first row of A is= (1 0) by the second column of B= (0 1) is equal to zero too because 1.0+0.1=0.

the second row of A is= (0 0) by any colum of B is equal to zero too.

So we have found an example that works!

The sum of two consecutive integers is 77. Find the integers.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

38 and 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two integers are consecutive, then one is one larger than the other. Therefore, lets call them x and x+1. We can now set up the following equation:

x+(x+1)=77

2x+1=77

2x=76

x=38

x+1=39

Hope this helps!

The length of a rectangle is 7 1/2 inches and the width is 4 3/4 inches. What is the ratio, using whole numbers, of the length t
Mariana [72]
Ratio is a division in its simplest form. 
To get the ratio of length to width, divide the two then simplify.

In this case, convert the length and width into decimals.

length = 7 1/2 = 7.5
width 4 3/4 = 4.75

ratio of length to width is;
7.5/4.75 = 750/475

This can now be written as; 
750 : 475
Dividing both sides by 25;

= 750/25: 475/25

= 30 : 19

Explain how they are different AND the same
True [87]

Proportional and linear functions are almost identical in form. The only difference is the addition of the “b” constant to the linear function. Indeed, a proportional relationship is just a linear relationship where b = 0, or to put it another way, where the line passes through the origin
