Answer:
a = 12 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Mark is 6 years older than his brother Sam. Now, we are asked to represent Sam’s age by a. This means that if Sam is a years old, Mark is (a + 6) years old.
The sum of their ages is 30, this means that when we add their ages together, we get the sum of thirty.
Mathematically this means a + a + 6 = 30
2a + 6 = 30
This is the equation needed to get a. To get a , we proceed to solve the equation to completion.
2a = 30 - 6
2a = 24
a = 24/2
a = 12
Answer:
y=4/5x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
because this is the answer
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- ∠A = ∠B (Vertically opposite angles)
- ∠A = (7x - 8)°
- ∠B = (6x + 17)°
Since ∠A is equivalent to ∠B...

Open the parenthesis:

Add 8 both sides:

Simplify both sides:

Subtract 6x both sides:

Simplify both sides:

Yes, it’s D because you would have want to compare both fractions by making them have the same denominator. Since 60 is the least common denominator for 10 and 12 (the denominators), you would convert the fractions by multiplying the numerator and denominator of 5/10 by 6 to get 60. 5/10 would turn into 30/60. Then you would multiply 6/12 both by 5, and then it would turn into 30/60. Now that you have equal fractions, you can guess that they are the same. Therefore, 30/60=30/60! An easier way of doing it would be just simplifying them into 1/2 and comparing them + seeing that they are both 1/2. Hope this helps!

Answer:
6.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
the question has no information about class size (no. of student in class)
assume no. of student is infinite
P(3brown out of 6) = 6C3 * P(brown)^3 * P(not brown)^3
= 20 * 0.004913 * 0.695789
= 0.06837
