Answer:
Maggie is 13 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
1M + 1B = 62
rearrange to get:
1B = 62 - 1M
4M - 3 = 1B
substitute B with 62 - 1M so there is only one variable. this gives:
4M - 3 = 62 - 1M
Get all the variables on one side:
4M + 1M - 3 = 62
Get all non variables on the other side:
4M + 1M = 62 + 3
simplify:
5M = 65
Divide both sides by 5 to get the M by itself:
M = 13.
BONUS:
M + B = 62
B = 49
So her brother is 49 years old.
Maggie is 13 years old.
By finding the volume of the shape
Given:
bottom of the plank or ground is 9 feet from the wall
length of the plant is 41 ft
height of the wall is unknown.
Let us use the Pythagorean theorem.
a² + b² = c²
a² + (9ft)² = (41ft)²
a² + 81 ft² = 1,681 ft²
a² = 1,681 ft² - 81 ft²
a² = 1,600 ft²
√a² = √1,600 ft²
a = 40 ft
The height of the wall is 40 ft.
Answer:
150 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
let m represent miles
$70 + .70m = $40 + .90m
subtract 40 from each side
$30 + .70m = .90m
subtract .70m from each side
$30 = .20m
divide both sides by .20
150 = m
