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

The right answer is Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Heart rate goal = I

Heart rate reserve = H

70% of H = \frac{70}{100}H = 0.7H

Resting heart rate = R

According to given statement,

70% of heart rate reserved is added to resting heart rate to calculate heart rate goal, therefore,

I = R + 0.7H

I=R+0.7H represents the given situation.

The right answer is Option A.
