Your gonna divide 72 by 2 so therefore you get 36

Answer:

24 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let Donald's age be x

then Nicole's age would be 1/2 * x = x/2

now, x + x/2 = 72

3x/2 = 72

3x = 72*2

x = 144/3 = 48

Donald's age is 48, so Nicole's age is 1/2 * 48 = 24 years.

Which equation represents a line that passes through (-2, 4) and has a slope of 2/5

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The equation of line is $5(y-4) = 2( x+2)$

$2 x-5 y+24=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

Given slope is $m = \frac{2}{5}$ and passes through (-2,4)

$y-y_{1}= m(x-x_{1} )$

$y-4 = \frac{2}{5}(x-(-2))$

$5(y-4) = 2( x+2)$

$2 x-5 y+24=0$

what is the probability that a randomly chosen number is less than or equal to 90 and is a multiple of 17

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

let's see...

we have total possible outcomes.. = 90 ( from 1 to 90)

Desiree outcomes..= 5 ( 17,34,51,68,85)

and therefore.. the probability is 5/90 = 1/18.

here you go.. that should be correct I hope.

Ito

Step-by-step explanation:

Make them to their closest common multiple which is twelve.

Next times 7 by 4 as 3*(4) is 12

Then time 9 by 3 as 3*(4) is 12

7*4=28

9*3=27

Therefore ito washes at a faster rate
