THEIR AGES

Mathematics
1 answer:
snow_tiger [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Tom’s age is 7 years

Mary’s age is 13 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we do not know the ages, let’s represent the ages by variables at first.

Let m represent mary’s age will t represent Tom’s age.

Now, let’s proceed to have equations.

Adding square of Tom’s age (t^2) to mary’s age give 62

t^2 + m = 62 •••••••(i)

Adding square of mary’s age (m^2) to Tom’s age give 176

m^2 + t = 176 •••••••(ii)

Now, to get the individual ages, we will need to solve both equations simultaneously.

Solving both equations simultaneously without mathematical softwares can be a little hard.

By the use of mathematical software ( wolfram alpha to be specific), we can input both equations and allow the software to solve.

By inputing these equations, we have the values of t to be 7 and m to be 13

And if we try to check by inspection, we can see that these values are actually correct.

7^2 + 13 = 62

13^2 + 7 = 176

Part A:
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

A). From the graph attached,

    Arrow AB represents the RISE and arrow BC represents the RUN.

B). RUN from point A to B (Horizontal distance) = 2 units

    Rise from point A to B (Vertical distance) = -4 [Since, downwards arrow represents negative notation]

    Slope of the line segment AB = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}}

                                                       = \frac{-4}{2}

                                                       = -2

   Therefore, slope of the line = slope of the line segment AB = -2

    Option D will be the correct option.

Answer:

85

Step-by-step explanation:

because A is half of that and if you divided 170 by 2 you would get 85, I think that's how you do it.
