Answer:

Terell age = 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 family members and they compared their ages.

let

Danny age = a

Terell age  = a - 3

let

Pablo age = b

Danny age = b - 1

Pablo age = 1/3 of Shaniqua age

Pablo age = 1/3 × 36

Pablo age = 36/3 = 12 years

Since Pablo's age is 12 years ,Danny's age can be gotten . Danny's age is needed because it has a relationship with Terell age. Recall that Danny is 1 year younger than Pablo.

Danny age = b - 1

Danny age = 12 - 1 = 11 years

Also recall that Terell is 3 years younger than Danny . Therefore,

Terell age  = a - 3

Terell age  = 11 - 3 = 8 years

Terell age = 8 years

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The answer is approx 75 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have P = 3000

r = 14%

Monthly payment = $60

We will use the formula :

[(0.14/12) \times3000] / [1- (1+(0.14/12)^{-12n}]

Solving this we get n = approx 75 months. After 75 months few dollars will be left. And in the 76th month the balance will become negative.

For easy and better understanding, I have attached an excel sheet.

The answer is approx 75 months.

A store has clearance items that have been marked down by 60%. They are having a sale, advertising an additional 15% off clearan
astra-53 [7]

Answer: 34%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price is marked down by 60% with an additional discount of 15% on the marked down price

Suppose x is the original price of the item

After marking down, it is

\Rightarrow x-x\times 0.6=0.4x

after additional discount it is

\Rightarrow 0.4x(1-0.15)=0.4x\times 0.85=0.34x

Effective discount on the item is

\Rightarrow \dfrac{x-0.34x}{x}\times 100=66\%

Thus, a person is paying 100-66=34\% of the original price

Let x be the temperature at noon

dropping means we subtract

The temperature at 9 pm was -4.  That goes on the right hand side of the equals

x-10 = -4

Add 10 to each side

x-10+10 = -4+10

x = 6

If BC = 7 and CD = 24, find AC.
vodomira [7]

  2√42 ≈ 12.961

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the right triangles are similar, so ...

  short leg/long leg = BC/AC = AC/CD

  AC² = BC·CD = 7·24 = 168

  AC = √168 = 2√42
