SOMEONE HELP PLEASE! A lot of points!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alik [6]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

First, you have to form simultaneous equation for both of their ages in yerms of a and b :

b = 4a - 12 -------- ( 1 )

a + b = 28 -------- ( 2 )

Next, you will have to solve it by substituting ( 1 ) into ( 2 ) :

a + (4a - 12) = 28

5a - 12 = 28

5a = 28 + 12

5a = 40

a = 8

Then, substitute a = 8 into ( 1 ) :

b = 4(8) - 12

b = 32 - 12

b = 20

∠C and ​ ∠D ​ are vertical angles with  m∠C=−x+26 and  m∠D=2x−10 .   What is m∠D ?
Valentin [98]
Vertical angles are made by two intersecting lines .and they are always equal
<span>∠C and ​ ∠D are equal.
so  </span><span>−x+26 =2x-10
-3x=-36
x=36/3
x=12</span>°

∠D= 2x-10
put value of x here
∠D=24-10
∠D=14°

Given the system of equation 7x-3y = 48 .......Eq 1 2x+ y = 35 ........Eq 2 __________ To solve this system by elimination and m
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

x = 11.75

y = 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

By Elimination Method:

   7x - 3y = 48    ---- (1)

-

<u>    2x + y = 35   ----</u>-   (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 and equation (2) by 7

   14x - 6y = 96

-

<u>    14x + 7y = 245      </u>

<u>      0   -13y = -149</u>

-13y = -149

y = -149/-13

y = 11.5

From equation (2); replace y with 12

2x + y = 35

2x + 11.5 = 35

2x = 35 - 11.5

2x = 23.5

x = 11.75

Can you please me asap​
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Each histogram section represents all values from the left value, to the right value of each section (i.e the section after 10 represents all values from 10 to 20).

If we break all the weights into categories by this principle, with frequencies in parenthesis, we get;

0-10: (0)

10-20: (0)

20-30: 21, 24 (2)

30-40: (0)

40-50: 42, 47 (2)

50-60: 54, 56 (2)

60-70: 65 (1)

70-80: 72 (1)

80-90: 83, 86 (2)

90-100: (0)

with these numbers, we know for certain that the correct answer is B
