Jack is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Luke : jack

3            2

We know like is 36

3*12 = 36, so we need to multiply by 12

Luke : jack

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation

Notice that Luke's real age is 12 times the number in the ratio, which is a simplified version of the original ratio, where they used division by 12 on both sides to get 3:2. Just do the opposite of division, which is multiplication, and multiply both sides of the ratio to get 36:24, which means that Jack is 24 years old!

Hope this helped you!

1. Which of the following is NOT true about an isosceles trapezoid?
viktelen [127]
On an isosceles trapezoid, the two sides that are not parallel to each other will be exactly the same length.  If this is true, than it would be create a symetric trapezoid.  The diagonals would be the same length.  The bases of any trapezoid are parallel, so this is true.  The diagonals cannot possibly be perpendicular because the 2 nonparallel sides would be slanted.  So, the answer is the 3rd choice.

Express 18 as a product of its factors?​
Dimas [21]

Answer:

18= 2 x 3 x 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, we branch out 18 into its prime factors. So, the prime factorization of 18 is 18= 2 × 3 × 3. A factor tree is not unique for a given number. Instead of expressing 18 as 2 × 9, we can express 18 as 3 × 6.
