Answer

 

sonu's age=16years

mothers age=44years

Step-by-step explanation:

sonu's age be x

then, mothers age will become 2x+12

after 8years,

sonu's age=x+8

mother's=2x+12+8

a/q

3(x+8)-20=2x+12+8

3x+24-20=2x+20

3x+4=2x+20

3x-2x=20-4

x=16

sonu's age=16years

mothers age=44years

How do I find x in this problem?
torisob [31]

Answer:

(6-2)×180 = 720

101+154+72+123+145+x=720

595 + x = 720

x = 720-595

x= 125

Which strategy best explains how to solve this problem?
Rufina [12.5K]
This is a geometric sequence because each term is twice the value of the previous term.  So this is what would be called the common ratio, which in this case is 2.  Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a(n)=nth value, a=initial value, r=common ratio, n=term number

In this case we have r=2 and a=1 so

a(n)=2^(n-1)  so on the sixth week he will run:

a(6)=2^5=32

He will run 32 blocks by the end of the sixth week.

Now if you wanted to know the total amount he runs in the six weeks, you need the sum of the terms and the sum of a geometric sequence is:

s(n)=a(1-r^n)/(1-r)  where the variables have the same values so

s(n)=(1-2^n)/(1-2)

s(n)=2^n-1 so 

s(6)=2^6-1

s(6)=64-1

s(6)=63 blocks

So he would run a total of 63 blocks in the six weeks.

What is the median number of guest for each holiday
Ivan

You have not given the data for which you like to find the median.

I will however explain how you can find the median of a given set of data, and you can apply the same method to your problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Median, just like it sounds, is simply the middle value of a given set of data.

Given a set of numbers:

a, b, c, d, e, ..., z.

To find the median, first,

- Arrange the numbers a, b, c, d, e, ..., ..., z in an ascending or descending order.

- Count the whole numbers, if it is odd, you have a middle number, and that is the median.

If it is even, you have two middle numbers, then the median will be the addition of those two numbers divided by two.

Example: To find the median of

4, 5, 2, 1, 2, 6, 7, 3, 5.

First, we arrange in ascending:

1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7

Next, we locate the middle number(s), which is 4.

The MEDIAN is 4 .

Example 2: To find the median of

9, 4, 5, 2, 1, 2, 6, 7, 3, 5.

First, we arrange in ascending:

1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7, 9

Next, we locate the middle number(2), which are 4 and 5.

The median = (4 + 5)/2

= 9/2

= 4.5

The MEDIAN is 4.5.

A ball with mass m kg is thrown upward with initial velocity 28 m/s from the roof of a building 17 m high. Neglect air resistanc
Nutka1998 [239]

a. At its maximum height, the ball has zero vertical velocity, so

-\left(28\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2=2(-g)(y_{\rm max}-17\,\mathrm m)

\implies y_{\rm max}=57\,\mathrm m

b. The ball's height in the air y at time t is given according to

y=17\,\mathrm m+\left(28\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2

Solve for t when y=0:

17+28t-4.9t^2=0\implies t\approx6.3\,\mathrm s

Ummm i don’t understand these I just started can someone help
bixtya [17]

so for question 2 find the area of the rectangle first:

15 \times 19 = 285

then you find the area of the triangles:

15 \times 13 = 195 \\ 195 \div 2 = 97.5

15 \times 11 = 165 \\ 165 \div 2 = 82.5

Add up all the answers:

285 + 97.5 + 82.5 = 465

and for question 3, part A, you just find the area of the 2 boxes and multiply:

5 \times 5 = 25 \\ 25 \times 2 = 50

2 \times 5 = 10 \\ 10 \times 4 = 40

40 + 50 = 90

so the surface area of the box is 90 square inches therefore the paint covered 90 square inches. For part B, just add up the length of the thick black lines:

5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 5 + 5 = 64
