K=kevin age
d=daniel ae

k is 3 times d
k=3d

4 years ago (k-4 and d-4)
kevin was 5 times as old as dan

k-4=5(d-4)

we have
k=3d
and
k-4=5(d-4)
sub 3d for k in second euaiton
3d-4=5(d-4)
3d-4=5d-20
minus 3d both sides
-4=2d-20
add 20 both sides
16=2d
divide 2
8=d
sub back
k=3d
k=3(8)
k=24

kevin is 24

K = Kevin's age
D = Daniel's age

K = 3D

K - 4 = 5(D - 4)

Plug in 3D for the K values in the second equation.

3D - 4 = 5(D - 4)   Use the Distributive Property
3D - 4 = 5D - 20   Add 4 to both sides
     3D = 5D - 16     Subtract 5D from both sides
    -2D = -16            Divide both sides by -2
       D = 8 
 Now, plug that D value into the original equation.

K = 3D    Plug in the D value
K = 3(8)   Multiply
K = 24

Finally, you can double check your math.

4 years ago, Daniel would've been 4 and Kevin would be 20, so Kevin would've been 5 times as old as Daniel.  And 8 x 3 = 24.

So, Kevin is 24.

Find the center and the radius of the circle defined by the equation x^2-8x+y+12y+36=0
choli [55]
Hello,
center is (4,-6)
radius=4
since
x^2-8x+y^2+12y+36=0\\

x^2-2*4x+16-16+y^2+2*6y+36=0\\

(x-4)^2+(y+6)^2=4^2

1. X(0,0) --> X'(3,-5).
    To go from (0,0) to (3,-5), you must go to the right 3 and down 5.

I cannot answer 2 or 3, as rotations are not my strong suit.

Demerol 45mg and atropine 400mcg/ml give how much per ml to total volume to inject demerol contains 50mg/ml, atropine contains 4
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Volume injected  = 1.65 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

mass of Demerol =45 mg.

density of pre-filled in syringe = 50 mg/ml

Volume = 45/50 = 0.9 ml

For atropine mass = 0.3 mg

density= 400 mcg/ml     [ Note : 1 mcg = 0.001 mg]

volume filled  = 0.3/400(0.001) = 0.75 ml

So, the total volume filled = 0.75+0.9 = 1.65 ml
