Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 4y² = 36

divide by constant

x²/36 + y²/9 = 1

x²/6² + y²/3² = 1

6>3, so length of major axis is 2×6 = 12

Mrs. Martini is 6 years more than 3 times as old as Tony. Eight years ago, she
zalisa [80]

Mrs Martini age is 42 years and Tony age is 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • Mrs. Martini is 6 years more than 3 times as old as Tony
  • Eight years ago, she  was 2 years less than 9 times as old as he was then

Assume that Tony is x years old now

∵ Mrs. Martini is 6 years more than 3 times as old as Tony

∵ Tony is x years old

- Multiply the age of Tony by 3 and add 6 to the product

∴ The age of Mrs Martini = 3 x + 6

8 years ago

- Subtract 8 from the age of each one

Tony age = (x - 8)

Mrs Martini age = (3 x + 6) - 8 = 3 x + 6 - 8 = 3 x - 2

∵ Eight years ago, Mrs Martini was 2 years less than 9 times as old

  as Tony was then

- Multiply Tony age by 9 and subtract 2 from the product

∵ Tony age from 8 years ago = x - 8

∵ Mrs Martini age from 8 years ago = 3 x - 2

∴ 9(x - 8) - 2 = 3 x - 2

- Simplify the left hand side

∴ 9 x - 72 - 2 = 3 x - 2

- Add like terms

∴ 9 x - 74 = 3 x - 2

- Subtract 3 x from both sides

∴ 6 x - 74 = -2

- Add 74 to both sides

∴ 6 x = 72

- Divide both sides by 6

∴ x = 12

∵ x represents the age of Tony

∴ Tony is 12 years old

∴ 3 x + 6 is the age of Mrs Martini

- Substitute x by 12

∵ 3(12) + 6 = 36 + 6 = 42

∴ Mrs Martini is 42 years old

Mrs Martini age is 42 years and Tony age is 12 years

The Walnut Cove Ruritan Club sells hot dogs and drinks from a concession stand at the annual July 4 parade. Carl bought 6 hot do
pickupchik [31]

Based on the two different purchases, you can write equations for the price of a hotdog (h) and that of a drink (d). These equations can be solved by your favorite method to find the individual prices.

... 6h +4d = 17.00 . . . . . . Carl's purchase

... 3h +4d = 12.50 . . . . . . Susan's purchase

We can see that the difference in purchase cost (of $4.50) is due entirely to the difference in the number of hotdogs (3). Thus, the price of a hotdog must be

... $4.50/3 = $1.50

The 4 drinks are then ($12.50 -4.50) = $8, so must be $2 each. You don't need to figure the cost of a drink to determine that the appropriate answer choice is ...

... D. $1.50 for a hot dog; $2.00 for a drink.
