Answer:
d) 9 years
Step-by-step explanation:
let present age as 'x'.
then, x=2x-3(x-6)
x=2x-3x+18
x= -x+18
2x=18
x=18/2
x=9

Had to look for the missing options and here is my answer.
Based on the study being conducted by Miranda which was covers students who would attend a students only school dance, the sample that is most likely going to give a representative sample for the poll would be "<span>twenty names from each grade pulled blindly from a container filled with the names of the entire student body </span><span>written on slips of paper." Hope this helps.</span>
Answer:
5(w - 2)(w + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
5w² - 20
5(w² - 4)
5(w - 2)(w + 2)
With the information given we can wirte down 2 different equations where:
x = How many Fictoon books there are
A nd y = How many non-fiction books there are :
#1) x + y = 312
( The total of the books is 312 )
#2) x = 11y
(He has 11 times as many firction books as he has non-ficton books)
Now what we need to do is to isolate one the variables ( x or y ) , get its value and apply to one the equations to get the other variable's value:
We can do that by the property of substitution:
If x = 11y
then x + y = (11y) + y = 12y
If x + y = 312
and x + y = 12y
then 12y = 312
Now with the equation 12y = 312 , we can isolate y by dividing both sides of the equation by 12 :
12/12y = 312/12
y = 26
What that means : Mark has 26 non-fictional books.
Now that we have the value of y , we can find the value of x by plugging y to one of the equations :
x + y = 312
or
x = 7y
( I will do both , but you dont need to )
x + y = 312
Plugin 26 for y :
x + 26 = 312
Shift 26 to the other side of the equation by subtracting both sides of the equation by 26:
x + 26 - 26 = 312 - 26
26 - 26 cancel out , so we end up with :
x = 286
Second Equation :
x = 11y
Plugin 26 for y:
x = 11 × 26
x = 286
Awnser : Mark has 286 fictoon books and 26 non-fiction !
I hope you understood my brief explanation. And please consider marking this awnser as Branliest. Thank you ! :)
