Answer:

41 and 77

Step-by-step explanation:

x: his age the first time he went to space

y: his age the second time he went to space

the second time he went to space he was 5 years younger than twice the age when he went his first time, then:

y = 2x - 5

the sum of both ages is 118, then:

x + y = 118

If you replace y = 2x - 5 in x + y =118:

x + 2x - 5 = 118

3x = 123

x = 41

replacing x:

41 + y = 118

y = 118 - 41

y = 77

so when he was 77, he was 5 years younger than twice 41 ( 41*2 = 82 => 82 - 5 =77)

Answer:

points (8, 0) and (3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we're being asked to find the roots of this quadratic equation.

Set f(x) = 3(x² - 11x + 24 = 0.

This factors into f(x) = 3(x - 8)(x - 3) = 0.

Then x - 8 = 0 and x - 3 = 0, yielding x = 8 and x = 3.  These correspond to the points (8, 0) and (3, 0).

Someone help me with this show work
kakasveta [241]
The equation has three factors and equals zero
One of the factors must be zero.
Either 3x = 0 which means x = 0
or x - 4 = 0 which means x = 4
or 3x + 5 = 0 which means 3x = -5 so x = -5/3

The answer is C

E cannot be correct in this question as you are asked to “solve” and not just pick a correct option

2% of the students at Hamilton Middle School have red hair. There are 700 students at Hamilton Middle
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

14 students

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a percentage proportion to find 2% of 700.

\frac{x}{700} = \frac{2}{100}, and we can use the cross products property to find the value of x.

700\cdot2=1400\\\\1400\div100=14

Hope this helped!
