Hi!
Divide 63 by 3. You will get 21. That is the boys age. His father’s age is 42. When combined their age is 63.
2 16/99 as decimal should be:
2 + (16/99) = 2 +0.17 = 2.17
Answer:
At its top floor, the Empire State Building stands <u>1,250 feet (380 meters)</u> tall. Counting the spire and antenna, the building clocks in at a mighty 1,454 feet (443 meters).
Solve the following system using substitution:
{y + 2.3 = 0.45 x
{-2 y = -3.6
In the second equation, look to solve for y:
{y + 2.3 = 0.45 x
{-2 y = -3.6
-3.6 = -18/5:
-2 y = -18/5
Divide both sides by -2:
{y + 2.3 = 0.45 x
{y = 9/5
Substitute y = 9/5 into the first equation:
{4.1 = 0.45 x
{y = 9/5
In the first equation, look to solve for x:
{4.1 = 0.45 x
{y = 9/5
4.1 = 41/10 and 0.45 x = (9 x)/20:
41/10 = (9 x)/20
41/10 = (9 x)/20 is equivalent to (9 x)/20 = 41/10:
{(9 x)/20 = 41/10
{y = 9/5
Multiply both sides by 20/9:
Answer: {x = 82/9
{y = 9/5
