as we move down the list as we push the *digits* to the *left*through the decimal *point* *each* *number has been 10*. and so we can easily *multiply* or divide by *a* power of *10* because of our system of positional numeration. Each Place belongs to the next power of *10*.
Answer:
Ivy is 6 years old and Rose is 12 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, two variables are necessary since we have two unknown variables: Ivy's age and Rose's age.
Ivy's age will be 
and Rose's age will be 
"Ivy is half as old as her sister":

this will be our <u>fist equation.</u>
"In six years, Ivy will be two-thirds as old as Rose"
in six years Ivy will have
years, and Rose will have
years, so for this sentence we have the equation:

this will be our <u>second equation.</u>
Substituting the value of x from the first equation into the second, and solving for y(Rose):

Rose is 12 years old.
and Ivy (using the fist equation):

Ivy is 6 years old.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In parallelogram DEFG,
DH = x + 1
HF = 3y
GH = 3x - 4
and HE = 5y + 1
Solution: Since, DH,HF, GH and HE represents the diagonals of the parallelogram and we know that the diagonals of the parallelogram bisect each other, therefore
x+1=3y (1)
3x-4=5y+1 (2)
Multiply equation (1) with 3 and then subtract equation (2) from it, we get
3x+3-3x+4=9y-5y-1
7=4y-1
y=2
Substituting the value of y=2 in equation (1), we get
x+1=3(2)
x=5
Therefore, the value of x and y are 5 and 2 respectively.
Answer:
At 11:50
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Subtract the hours and the minutes separately
12: 20
<u>- 0</u>: <u> 30</u>
12: -10
2. If the minutes are negative, subtract 1 from the hours and add 60 to the minutes.
12: -10
<u> - 1</u>: <u>+ 60
</u>
11: 50
You should remind PJ about her deliveries at 11:50.
ANSWER:
There are 30 geese.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Let y be the total no. of animals
Share= ratio/total ratio X total
50= 5/8 X y
50= 5y/8
50 X 8= 5y
y= 400/5
y= 80
The total no. of animals is 80
80-50=30 ans.
