Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Flopsy's age be represented by x.

Therefore, since Peter is one year older than four times Flopsy's age. Peter's age will be:

= (4 × x) + 1

= 4x + 1

We are further told that the sum of their ages is 19. This will be:

x + 4x + 1 = 19

5x + 1 = 19

5x = 19 - 1

5x = 18

x = 18/5

x = 3.6 years

Flopsy's age = 3.6 years

y = 4x + 1

= 4(3.6) + 1

= 14.4 + 1

= 15.4 years

Peter's age = 15.4 years

On any given day, the number of users, u, that access a certain website can be represented by the inequality 125-4530
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Our inequality is |125-u| ≤ 30. Let's separate this into two. Assuming that (125-u) is positive, we have 125-u ≤ 30, and if we assume that it's negative, we'd have -(125-u)≤30, or u-125≤30.

Therefore, we now have two inequalities to solve for:

125-u ≤ 30

u-125≤30

For the first one, we can subtract 125 and add u to both sides, resulting in

0 ≤ u-95, or 95≤u. Therefore, that is our first inequality.

The second one can be figured out by adding 125 to both sides, so u ≤ 155.

Remember that we took these two inequalities from an absolute value -- as a result, they BOTH must be true in order for the original inequality to be true. Therefore,

u ≥ 95

and

u ≤ 155

combine to be

95 ≤ u ≤ 155, or the 4th option

If the perimeters of each shape are equal, which equation can be used to find the value of x?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

(x+2) + x + (x+4) = 2(1/2) + 2(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

They are equal to each other and the rectangle has 2x more perimeter

The triangle would be divided in half from that rectangle.

Sorry If this is confusing I am not very good at explaining things.
