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

What is the area of a shape with points a 5 -8 b 11, -8 c 11,0 d 6,-3 e 4,-3
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Area of the given figure is 51.5 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle OCBH = Length × width

                                         = 11 × 8

                                         = 88 square units

Area of trapezoid OGEF = \frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)\times h

                                         = \frac{1}{2}(\text{GE+OF)}\times (\text{OG})

                                         = \frac{1}{2}(3+6)\times 4

                                         = 18 units²

Area of trapezoid GCDE = \frac{1}{2}(\text{GC+DE)}\times (\text{GE})

                                         = \frac{1}{2}(7+2)\times 3

                                         = 13.5 units²

Area of triangle AFH = \frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})\times (\text{Height})

                                  = \frac{1}{2}(5)(2)

                                  = 5 units²

Area of polygon ABCDEF = Area of rectangle CBHO - (Area of trapezoid OGEF + Area of trapezoid GCDE + Area of triangle AFH)

                                           = 88 - (18 + 13.5 + 5)

                                           = 88 - 36.5

                                           = 51.5 units²

Therefore, area of the given polygon is 51.5 units²

Problem 11-3 blair &amp; rosen, inc. (b&amp;r) is a brokerage firm that specializes in investment portfolios designed to meet th
Artyom0805 [142]

Linear programming which shows the best investment strategy for the client is Max Z=0.12I +0.09B and subject to constraints are :I+ B<=25000,

0.005 I +0.004B<=250.

Given maximum investment client can make is $55000, annual return= 9%, The investment advisor requires that at most $25,000 of the client's funds should be invested in the internet fund. The internet fund, which is the more risky of the two investment alternatives, has a risk rating of 5 per thousand dollars invested. the blue chip fund has a risk rating of 4 per thousand dollars invested.

We have to make a linear programming problem.

Let

I= Internet fund investment in thousands.

B=Blue chip fund  investment in thousands.

Objective function:

Max Z=0.12I+0.09B

subject to following constraints:

Investment amount: I+ B<=25000

Risk Rating: 5/100* I+4/100*B<=250 or 0.005 I +0.004B<=250

I,B>=0.

Hence the objective function is Max Z=0.12 I+ 0.09 B.
