Answer:

Gary is now 24years

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of Jan be x and that of Gary be x+15

in six years time they will be as follows

Jan =x+6

Gary=x+15+6=x+21

2(x+6)=x+21

2x+12=x+21

collect the like terms

2x-x=21-12

x=9

Gary =9+15=24years

The length of an arc is given by θ/360×2πr, where θ is angle subtended by the arc to the center and r is the radius of the circle.
The length is 12 units, and θ/360 is 1/3
Therefore, 12 = 1/3 × 3.142 ×r
r = 12× 3/3.142
r = 11.457 units
≈ 11 units
