You can write the two equations x = 4y - 7 and x + y = 93; substitute the value of x into the other equation

(4y - 7) + y = 93; combine like terms

5y - 7 = 93; add 7 to both sides

5y = 100; divide both sides by 5

y = 20; substitute this value into the other equation

x + 20 = 93

x = 73

So the numbers are 20 and 73

The age of a boy is twice that of his sister. five years ago the boy was 3 times the age of his sister. How old is the boy

joja [24]

Answer:

<h2>20 years old.</h2>

Solution,

Let the age of sister be X

Let the age of boy be 2x

Now,

Five years ago,

 $3(x - 5) = 2x - 5 \\ or \: 3x - 15 = 2x - 5 \\ or \: 3x - 2x = - 5 + 15 \\ x = 10$ 

Again,

Replacing value,

 $age \: of \: boy = 2x \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 2 \times 10 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 20$ 

hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..

This is my last question. Please help me!

Okay so first you want to simplify the given equation (7x+3y)(7x-3y)

in order to do this you multiply the first number of the first equation (7x) with the first number of the second equation (7x) this gives you 49x^2

Now you want to multiply the second number of the first equation (3y) by the second number of the second equation (-3y) this gives you -9y^2

Its as easy as pie!

How can you decompose the composite figure to determine its area?

Anna007 [38]

For this case the first thing you should do is observe that the diameter of the four semicircles is the same.

Therefore, we can decompose the figure as follows:

1) We draw the diameters of the four semicircles to form a square.

2) We divide the figure into a square and four semicircles

3) The total area is the sum of the area of the square, plus the area of the 4 semicircles.

Answer:

c)as a square and four semicircles
