Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

A man is now 3 times as old as his son.

m = 3s

In 10 years time, the sum of their ages will be 76

(m + 10) + (s + 10) = 76

Subsitute for m = 3s

(3s + 10) + (s + 10) = 76

4s + 20 = 76

4s = 56

s = 14

m = 3s = 14 * 3

m = 42

------------------------

How old was the man when his son was born?

m - s = 42 - 14

m - s = 28

Answer:

we conclude that in the second step, 3 should have been subtracted from the right side as well on the left side.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

4 < -2x + 3 < 9

SECOND STEP

subtract 3 from the right-hand side as well as on the left-hand side

4-3

SOLVING THE REMAINING COMPLETE COMPRESSION

1 < -2x < 6

Divide all parts by -2

  • Please note that multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number flips the inequality sign.

so the expression becomes

\frac{1}{-2}\:

\frac{1}{-2}\:>x\:

Hence, from the explanation, we conclude that in the second step, 3 should have been subtracted from the right side as well on the left side.

A 30°–60°–90° triangle has a shorter leg with a length of 3 units.
Lena [83]
The hypotenuse is 6. 30-60-90 triangles have a ration of x, x\sqrt{3}, and 2x, respectively. So since you have the value for the 30º side, then you just double it to get the hypotenuse's value.
