Answer: 45 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

- Father's age is thrice the sum of ages of his two children

- After five years, his age will be twice the sum of their ages

Let x be the two children's current age and 3x be the father's current age

<u>Solve:</u>

Set equation

3x + 5 = 2 ( x + 10 )

Expand parenthesis

3x + 5 = 2x + 20

Subtract 5 on both sides

3x + 5 - 5 = 2x + 20 - 5

3x = 2x + 15

Subtract 2x on both sides

3x - 2x = 15

x = 15

15 × 3 = 45 years old

Hope this helps!! :)

Triangle ABC is an oblique triangle. If angle A equals 57°, angle B equals 73°, and AB equals 24 in, what is the length of AC?
natulia [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

\huge{\underbrace{\overbrace{\mathfrak{\pink{Answer:}}}}}

Angle C must = [180 - 73 - 57 ] = [180 - 130] = 50°

And using rhw Law if Sines, we have.....

AB/sin C = AC/sin B → 24/sin(50) = AC/sin(73) → AC = 24*sin(73)/sin(50) = about 29.96 in

Problem 2.9 a runner completes the 200-meter dash with a time of 20.19 seconds. part a what was the runner's average speed in me
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Average speed = 9.91 m/s

Explanation :

Total distance covered by a runner = 200 m

Time taken to complete this distance = 20.19 sec

We need to find the average of runner speed in meter/sec

We use the speed,  distance, time formula

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

speed = \frac{200}{20.19}

Average speed = 9.91 m/s

that's the final answer.

I hope it will help you.
