Answer:
The age of brothers are 4 years and 2 years respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the ages of two brothers have a ratio of 2 to 1. When 4 years have passed, the ratio of their ages will be 8 to 6.
Let the age of the first brother be 'x years' and the age of the second brother be 'y years'.
So, according to the question;
- The first condition states that the ages of two brothers have a ratio of 2 to 1, that means;
-------------- [equation 1]
- The second condition states that when 4 years have passed, the ratio of their ages will be 8 to 6, that means;





= 2 years
Putting the value of y in equation 1 we get;
x = 2y
x =
= 4 years
Hence, the age of brothers are 4 years and 2 years respectively.
Given a quadratic equation

1. the first thing we do when we want to compete the square, is write the coefficient of x as 2 times a number.
In our case the coefficient of x is 10, so we write 10 as 2*5
2. then we write +

and -

to the expression:



Answer:
Graph C. The equation of the line is y=2x+5. 5 is the y-intercept so the line has to go through that point.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 82.5 + 2x = 338.5

2x ÷ _2__ = 256 ÷ _2__
x = _128__
Answer:
C. 490.
Step-by-step explanation:
25% = 0.25.
If the number of emails that Ryan and Taylor each received is x emails then Sara received 2x + 0.25 * 2x = 2.5 emails.
So 2x + 2.5x = 882
x = 882/4.5
x = 196.
So Sara received 2.5 * 196
= 490 emails.
