Answer:

ok so im so confused but like you know i tried and i got this:

X years ago, the father’s age and the son’s age would be (32 - x) and (7 - x) years old.

(32 - x)(7 - x) = 116

(x - 32)(x - 7) = 116

x^2 - 39x + 224 = 116

x^2 - 39x + 108 = 0

(x - 3)(x - 36) = 0

x = 3, 36

But (32 - x) > 0, so x does not equal to 36.

x = 3

3 years ago, the father would be 29 years old, and the son 4 years old.

i know it sounds crazy but i think its wrong lol

At Macon County High School, a classroom is 400 ft2. After the teacher sets up her desk, computer, and podium, there are 250 ft2
tigry1 [53]
Ok so
250 left for student desks
250≥8n
n=number of desks
solve
divide both sides by 8
31.25≥n
round down since we cannot have a decimal desk
31 desks

but, the teacher has 1 desk also so add 1
31+1=32
