Answer:

48 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the complete question is "The ratio of ages of kissi and esinam is 3:5 and that of esinam and lariba is 3:5. The sum of ages of all 3 is 147 years. whats the age difference between oldest and youngest ?"

It is given that

Kissi : Esinam = 3:5 = 9:15

Esinam : Lariba = 3:5 = 15:25

So, the combined ratio is Kissi : Esinam : Lariba = 9:15:25

Let ages of Kissi, Esinam, Lariba are 9x, 15x and 25x.

Sum of ages of all 3 is 147 years.

9x+15x+25x=147

49x=147

x=3

The value of x is 3. So, the age of all three are

Kissi=9x=9(3)=27

Esinam=15x=15(3)=45

Lariba=25x=25(3)=75

Since Lariba is oldest and Kissi is youngest, therefore, the difference between their ages is

75-27=48

Hence, difference between oldest and youngest is 48 years.

Jenny bought a 5 notebooks and 2 pencils, and the total was 9 dollars.
weeeeeb [17]
You would solve this with simultaneous equations, so if we write it as:
5n + 2p = 9
3n + 2p = 6
(subtract)
2n = 3
÷ 2
notebooks = 1.5

Now you would substitute it in:
(3 × 1.5) + 2p = 6
4.5 + 2p = 6
- 4.5
2p = 1.5
÷ 2
pens = 0.75

So your final answer is notebooks are $1.50 and pens are $0.75, I hope this helps!

What is the coefficient of X^2Y^2 in the expansion of (x+y)^4
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to expand this; (x + y)⁴

This can be written as;

(x + y)² × (x + y)²

This gives;

(x² + 2xy + y²) × (x² + 2xy + y²)

This gives;

x²(x² + 2xy + y²) + 2xy(x² + 2xy + y²) + y²(x² + 2xy + y²) = x⁴ + 2x³y + x²y² + 2x³y + 4x²y² + 2xy³ + x²y² + 2xy³ + y⁴

Simplifying gives;

x⁴ + 4x³y + 4xy³ + 6x²y² + y⁴

Thus, the coefficient of x²y² is 6
