Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.
W+d=869
w=d-81
plug in
(d-81)+d=869
2d-81=869
+81 both sides
2d=950
÷2 both sides
d=475
dryer cost $475
let's check w=475-81
w=394
475+394=869
869=869
the solution is true :)
0.86/5-0.3*0.5= 2 answers
1. can be 11/500
2. it can be 0.022 but im positive it has to be 11/500
Check the picture below.
so, a cone, that fits inside the cylinder, will have the same height "h" and radius "r". Thus
