Answer: 45%
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting the word problem into words, we have:
18= x/100*40
Solving for it, we get that x=45.
Answer:
h(1) = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
What h(1) is saying is the value of x = 1. We need to find the y-value.
We see from the graph that when x = 1, y = -2.
Answer:
<h3>13 years</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Alicia be x
Let the present age of her brother be y
Three years ago;
Alicia age = x - 3
Her brother's age = y - 3
If three years ago Alicia was twice as old as her brother Carlos, then;
X - 3 = 2(Y-3)
x-3 = 2y - 6
x = 2y - 3 ...1
In two years time;
Alicias age = x+2
Her brother's age = y +2
If in two more years Alicia will be just 50% older than Carlos, then;
x+2 = y + 2 + (0.5(y+2))
x+2 = y+2 + 0.5y + 1
x+2 = 1.5y+3
x = 1.5y + 1 ...2
Equating 1 and 2;
2y - 3 = 1.5y + 1
2y - 1.5y = 1+3
0.5y = 4
y = 4/0.5
y = 8
Since x = 2y-3
x = 2(8) - 3
x = 16-3
x = 13
Hence Alicia will be 13 years old today
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x-7/4=-2
x-7=-8
x=-1
