Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Byron is 2 yrs younger than Cindy. 8 years ago the sum of their ages was 14.

Byron is 2 years at that time. Definitely, Cindy is 12 years old so the sum of their ages was 14. Let us just add 8 years to Byron's age at that time so 2 + 8 = 10

P.S: This just based on my understanding of the problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of Byron be b yr old and Cindy be c yr old.

c = b + 2 --(1)

b - 8 + c - 8 = 14

b + c = 30 --(2)

sub (1) into (2):

2b = 28

b = 14

therefore Byron is 14 yr old now.

The price of a ring was decreased by 25% to £390. what was the price before the decrease?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The original price was 520

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we first need to note that we paid 75% of the price. This is because we took 25% off from the original. Now we take the price we paid and divide it by the percentage of it which we paid. This will give us the original price.

390/75% = Total

390/.75 = Total

520 = Total

In the figure, triangle CAE is an enlargement of triangle CBD with scale factor of 4/3. The area of the smaller triangle is 9cm2
balandron [24]

Answer:

16 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\triangle CAE -- Bigger Triangle

\triangle CBD -- Smaller Triangle

k = \frac{4}{3} --- Scale factor

Area of CBD = 9

Required

Determine the area of CAE

The area of triangle CBD is:

A_1 = \frac{1}{2}bh

\frac{1}{2}bh = 9

The area of CAE is:

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}BH

Where:

B = \frac{4}{3}b and

H = \frac{4}{3}h

The above values is the dimension of the larger triangle (after dilation).

So, we have:

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{4}{3}b * \frac{4}{3} * h

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{4}{3} * \frac{4}{3} *b* h

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{16}{9}  *b* h

Re-order

A_2 = \frac{16}{9}*\frac{1}{2}* b* h

A_2 = \frac{16}{9}*\frac{1}{2}bh

Recall that:

\frac{1}{2}bh = 9

A_2 = \frac{16}{9}*9

A_2 = 16

Hence, the area is 16 cm^2
