R(c) = Ralph's current age
R(c)= 3x [given]
Answer:
R(c)=2x + 4

Answer:

Sara present is 4 years and Ralph present age is 3x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, x represents Sarah's present age  then

According to question

Ralph is 3 times as old as Sara.

that is present age of Ralph = 3x

After 4 years age of Sara will be x + 4

and age of Ralph will be 3x + 4.

According to question,

In 4 years, Ralph will be only twice as old as Sara will be then.

⇒ 3x + 4 = 2( x + 4)

Solving for x, we get,

⇒ 3x + 4 = 2 x + 8

⇒ 3x -2x = 8 - 4

⇒ x = 4.

Thus, Sara present is 4 years and Ralph present age is 3x = 12

Suppose that a company has recently started manufacturing a new line of​ helicopters, and it took 106.496 labor days to complete
Allisa [31]

A "learning rate" expresses the ratio of the labor spent on the n-th item to that spent on the (n/2)-th item. That is, the 8th helicopter manufactured took days related by ...

0.8 × (days for 8th) = (days for 16th)

(days for 8th) = (days for 16th)/0.8 = 1.25×(days for 16th)

Then the days for the 4th are 1.25 times that, and the days for the 2nd are 1.25 times the days for the 4th. The days for the first helicopter will be

... 1.25⁴×106.496 days = 260 days

The appropriate choice is

... d. 260
