Answer:
24 and 48
Today, the son is 24 years old, and the father is 48 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 10) + (2x - 10) = 52
3x + 20 = 52
3x = 72
x = 24
The father is 2 times his son's age.
2x
= 2(24)
= 48
So, the son is 24 and the father is 48.
10 years ago, son was 14 and father was 38, if added, this adds up to 52, so we know our calculations are correct.
Answer:
A. y=1/3x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
When finding a line that is perpendicular to another line, all you have to do is find the "opposite reciprocal" of the slope. In this case that means writing the slope as the fraction -3/1, and then flipping the fraction over (1/-3) and taking away the negative sign which gets you 1/3 for the slope of your new line. Now, all you have of your new equation is the slope. You need to take your new equation (y=1/3x+b) and plug in the x and y coordinates to that equation, and then solve for the last variable which is b. That solving process goes as follows:
3=1/3*6+b
3=2+b
1=b
now you can replace the b with 1 in your equation to get your final answer of y=1/3x+1
Answer:
George is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
if the jacket is in sales for 20% off, Jane's coupon would give her a discount of 10% on top of the already discounted 20%.
Jane is incorrect because, if she added the 2 discount together, she gets a total of 30%, but that is a 30% discount of the original price of $75 which isn't correct. what we want to do is find how much the jacket cost after 20% discount THEN use the coupon to get a further 10% discount on the sales price of the jacket. and for this reason, George is correct.
hope this helped
