Answer:
Sister = 15 years old
Brother = 12 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Right now, if the brother is B years old and the sister is S years old, B = (4/5)S because the ratio from brother to sister is 4:5, so if one unit is X, B = 4X and S = 5X
Three years ago, the brother was B-3 years old and the sister was S-3 years old. Keeping one unit as X, we have
B = 3X
S = 4X
B-3 = (3/4)(S-3)
Therefore, we have a system of equations
B = (4/5)S
B-3 = (3/4)(S-3)
Substitute (4/5)S for B into the second equation to only have one variable
(4/5)S - 3 = (3/4)(S-3)
(4/5)S - 3 = (3/4)S - 9/4
add 3 to both sides and subtract (3/4)S from both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient
(1/20)S = 3/4
multiply both sides by 20 to isolate the S
S = 15
B = (4/5)S = 12

Answer:
sorry but idk
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A , B, and D
Step-by-step explanation:
you find the unit prices by dividing the cost per pound
a bc it sells them at $1.52 per pound
b bc it sells them at $1.49 per pound
NOT c because it sells them at $3.14 per pound
D because it sells them at $1.88 per pound
Answer:
49/4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Inches below ground= 3 1/2 inches
Plant's full height=15 3/4 inches
Height above ground = 15 3/4 inches -3 1/2 inches
63/4 - 7/2
63-14/4
49/4 inches
