Let's create expressions and equations to model this situation. Let Anthony's age be a.
"Jim is 3 times as old as his cousin, Anthony." Jim's age is 3a.
"The difference in their age is 18." 3a - a = 18
How old is Jim?
Let's solve the above equation for a to first find Anthony's age.
3a - a = 18
2a = 18
a = 9
Remember, Jim's age is represented by the expression 3a. Substitute Anthony's age, 9, into the expression to find Jim's age.
3a
3(9)
27
Answer:
Jim is 27 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:
3x5
Answer:
$12.43
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Mean = $8.52
Standard deviation, = $2.38
Stock price which falls beyond 0.05 of the distribution is at the 95th percentile
The 95th percentile distribution has a Pvalue of 1.645 (standard normal table)
We obtain the value of x, with z = 1.645
Using the Zscore relation :
Zscore = (score - mean) / standard deviation
1.645 = (score - 8.52) / 2.38
Cross multiply :
1.645 * 2.38 = score - 8.52
3.9151 = score - 8.52
Score = 8.52 + 3.9151
Score = $12.4351
Stock price beyond 0.05 is $12.43
20% off means you pay 80% of the price so you multiply by 0.8, and 7% tax means you multiply by 1.07
Resulting cost = 18.99*0.8*1.07 = 16.26
Hope this helps let me know if im wrong!
The answer is B f(x)= -3(x+1)^2+2
