Answer:

Bola is 8 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Bola's age be x

Dada's age be y

Ayo's age be z

If the sum of ages of Bola, Dada and Ayo is 32 years, then;

x + y + z = 32

If they share a sum of money in ratio of their ages, then the ratio of their ages will be x : y : z

Also if Bola gets N400, Dada get-N400 and Ayo get N800, then the total amount of money shared will be expressed as:

T = 400 + 400 + 800

T = N1600

Next is to get the age of Bola

\frac{age \ of \ bola}{32}* Total \ amount \ shared = Bola's \ Share

Substitute the required variables and values into the formula;

\frac{x}{32}*1600= 400\\50x=400\\x=\frac{400}{50}\\x=8

This shows that Bola is 8 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

12 hours    x hours

----------   = ------------

93 dollars    62 dollars

Using cross products

12 * 62 = 93x

Divide each side by 93

12*62/93 = 93x/93

Answer:

Part 1) 0.669

Part 2) x=23.78 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we have

cos(48°)

Using a calculator

cos(48°)=0.66913

Round to the nearest thousandth

0.66913=0.669

Part 2) we know that

In the right triangle of the figure

The cosine of angle of 18 degrees is equal to divide the adjacent side to the angle of 18 degrees by the hypotenuse of the right triangle

so

cos(18°)=x/25

x=(25)cos(18°)=23.78 cm
