Answer:

9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age = x

Age 6 years ago = x - 6

Thrice my age 6 years ago = 3*(x -6) =3x - 3*6 = 3x - 18

Twice my present age = 2 *x = 2x

Thrice my age 6 years ago be subtracted from

twice my present age = 2x - (3x - 18)

2x - (3x - 18) = x

2x - 3x + 18 = x

-x + 18 = x {Add x to both sides}

18 = x + x

18 = 2x {Divide both sides by 2}

18/2 = x

x = 9 years

If a salesperson sells 3/4 of an acre for $80,000, what was the price per square foot rounded to two decimal spaces?

Julli [10]

Now, recalling that for 1 yard, there are 3 feet, therefore $\bf \begin{array}{ll}
yards&feet\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
1yd&3ft\\
(1yd)^2&(3ft)^2\\
yd^2&3^2ft^2\\
&9ft^2
\end{array}$

and keeping in mind that, there are 4840 yd² in 1 acre, then

$\bf \cfrac{\quad \frac{3}{4}~\underline{acre}\quad }{80000~\$}\cdot \cfrac{4840~\underline{yd^2}}{\underline{acre}}\cdot \cfrac{9~ft^2}{\underline{yd^2}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}\cdot4840\cdot 9~ft^2}{80000~\$}\implies \cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{80000}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{\frac{80000}{1}}\implies \cfrac{130680}{4}\cdot \cfrac{1}{80000}\implies \cfrac{3267}{8000}~\frac{ft^2}{\$}~\approx~ 0.408375 ~\frac{ft^2}{\$}$
