Answer: 26 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = current age of Louise (in years).
Then current age of James = x+6
Eight years from now, James's age = x+6+8= x+14
4 years ago, Louise's age = x-4
According to the question
x+14 = 4(x-4)
⇒ x+14 = 4x-16
⇒ 4x-x = 16+14
⇒ 3x = 30
⇒ x= 10 = current age of Louise (in years).
current age of James = 10+6 = 16 years
Sum of current ages = 16+10=26 years.
hence, the sum of the current ages is 26 years.

Answer: 62.5%</h3>
Explanation:
There are 50+30 = 80 grams of sugar and water mixed together.

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
5.06
Discussion:
Angle J = 180 - (120 + 40) = 180 - 160 = 20 degrees,
From the law of sines
sin(120)/k = sin(20)/2 =>
sin(120) = k * ( sin(20)/2) ) (multiply both sides by "k")
k = sin(120)/ ( sin(20)/2) (divide both sides by sin(20)/2)
k = (0.866) / ( 0.171) = 5.06
