In order to solve these sort of problems, we can set up 2 equations from the 2 statements.

We can subsitute the value of f, our first equation, into the second equation and solve like this:

Then we put the the son's age, 20, back into one of our equations and solve for the other value.

Thus, the father is 45 years old and the son is 20 years old.
Answer:
steps below
Step-by-step explanation:
5th level of Pascal triangle: 1,5,10,10,5,1
(1+2x)⁵ = 1*1⁵*(2x)⁰+5*1⁴*2x+10*1³*(2x)²+10*1²*(2x)³+5*1¹(2x)⁴+1*1⁰*(2x)⁵
= 1 + 10x + 40x² + 80x³ + 80x⁴ + 32x⁵ .. (1)
(1-2x)⁵ = 1 - 10x + 40x² - 80x³ + 80x⁴ - 32x⁵ .. (2)
(1)+(2): (1+2x)⁵ + (1-2x)⁵ = 160x⁴ + 80x² +2
a + bx + cx ?? suppose it's ax⁴ + bx² + cx, if you have other set up.. adjust by yourself
<u>a = 160, b = 80, c = 2</u>
Answer: tan(14x)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Consider the Sum Formula for tan:

Answer: -9/10 is the simplest form of -0.9
Answer:
18 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)
where A is the final amount,
A₀ is the initial amount,
t is the time,
and T is the half life.
A = 140 when t = 10. Solve for the half life:
140 = 700 (½)^(10 / T)
0.2 = ½^(10 / T)
log 0.2 = (10 / T) log 0.5
10 / T = 2.32
T = 4.31
When A = 40, t is:
40 = 700 (½)^(t / 4.31)
0.057 = ½^(t / 4.31)
log 0.057 = (t / 4.31) log 0.5
t / 4.31 = 4.13
t = 17.8
Rounded to the nearest whole number, it takes 18 minutes.
