 First, establish what you already know to be true:
P = 3 + R \\ E = 2R \\ R + E = 81
 
 You can use these equations to solve each other. Let's take the last one, R + E = 81. Using the additive property of equality, we find that R = 81 - E. We now know that Mr. Richard's age is 81 minus Mr. Edward's age. If we substitute this equation into the second one, we have E = 2(81 - E). Now use the distributive property to simplify:
E = 162 - 2E, and solve for E:
E = 162 - 2E \\ 3E = 162 \\ E = 54.
 
 Now we have a definite age. Use this to find the other two ages:
R + 54 = 81 \\ R = 27
and
27 = 3 + P \\ -P + 27 = 3 \\ -P = -24 \\ P = 24.

 We now know that Ms. Pacheo is 24, Mr. Edwards is 54, and Mr. Richard's is 27! :D

Mr edwards = Mr r x 2
Mr r = Mr p - 3 = Mr e ÷ 2.                       Mr p = 30
Mr e + Mr r = 81.                                       Mr e = 54
Mr p = Mr r + 3.                                         Mr r = 27

Mr Edwards = 2(Mr p - 3)
Mr e = 2(mr p) - 6

Mr r = [2(Mr p) -6] ÷ 2
Mr r = [2( Mr r + 3) - 6] ÷ 2

2(Mr r) + (Mr p - 3) = 81
2(Mr p -3) + (Mr p - 3) = 81
3(Mr p - 3) = 81 
3(Mr p) - 9 = 81.                               Hope this helps!!!
3(Mr p) + 9 = 81 + 9
3(Mr p) = 90
Mr p = 90 ÷ 3
Mr p = 30

The table shows the relationship
Airida [17]

The linear relationship which exists between the change in weight and number of days of hibernation in a hedgedog can be modeled using the equation y = - 0.03 + 0

  • Change in weight per day of hibernation = - 0.03
  • Change in weight for 115 days = - 3.45 ounces

A linear model can be created using the data in the table given using a regression calculator or excel ;

The linear model obtained in the form y = m + bx is :

  • y = - 0.03x + 0
  • y = change in weight
  • x = number of days of hibernation
  • Intercept = 0
  • Slope = -0.03

  • The slope value of the function gives the change in weight value per number of days of hibernation ; which is -0.03.

  • Using the regression equation, substitute, the vlaue of x = 115
  • -0.03(115) + 0 = - 3.45

Therefore, the change in weight after 115 days of hibernation is - 3.45 ounces.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

-62024.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[ 4 * ( 4 + 3 ) ] - 3 [ ( 7 - 5 ) \div 1 2 ] * 2 ( 5.4 + 3 ) * ( 6 - 2 ) [ 9 \div 3 + 6 ] * 3 ( 4 + 3.2 ) * [ ( 9 - 2 ) + 2.5]

Required

Solve

The question is poorly formatted; the only way to answer this is to place the result of each step in brackets until brackets cannot be used.

So, we have

[ 4 * ( 4 + 3 ) ] - 3 [ ( 7 - 5 ) \div 1 2 ] * 2 ( 5.4 + 3 ) * ( 6 - 2 ) [ 9 \div 3 + 6 ] * 3 ( 4 + 3.2 ) * [ ( 9 - 2 ) + 2.5 ]

Solve the expressions in the inner brackets

[ 4 * 7 ] - 3 [ 2  \div 1 2 ] * 2 ( 8.4  ) * ( 4 ) [ 9 \div 3 + 6 ] * 3 ( 7.2 ) * [ 7 + 2.5 ]

Solve all divisions

[ 4 * 7 ] - 3 * \frac{1}{6}  * 2 ( 8.4  ) * ( 4 ) [ 3 + 6 ] * 3 ( 7.2 ) * [ 7 + 2.5 ]

[28] - 0.5  * (16.8) * (4) [9] * (21.6) * [9.5]

[28] - 0.5  * (16.8) *  [36] * (21.6) * [9.5]

Multiply through

28- 62052.48

-62024.48
