Answer:
12 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call Sydney's age x and Sam's age 2x. We can write:
x + 2x = 36
3x = 36
x = 12 so the answer is 12 years old.
(E) "cast doubt on the aptness of a description"
Writers will occasionally include a term or phrase in quotation marks to question its veracity. The author of paragraph 2 denigrates the learning theorists by putting the word "experts" in quotation marks because of their "shocking" estimate of canine intelligence.
The answer is not (A). One may contend that the author's use of quote marks conveys surprise or even irritation. (B) is the wrong answer. The term "experts" being surrounded by quotation marks is not a show of "respect," but rather of suspicion.
The answer is not (C). There is no need to doubt the plain usage of the word "experts" in this context, even when the author may have reservations about the theories of the experts. D is likewise a poor choice.

Xy-3x=40, x=5
x(y-3)=40
y-3=(40/x)
y=(40/x)+3
y=(40/5)+3
y=8+3
y=11
Answer:
<h2>
perimeter of △SMP = 25</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the triangle △SMP is the sum of al the sides of the triangle.
Perimeter of △SMP = ||MS|| + ||MP|| + ||SP||
Note that the triangle △LRN, △LSM, △MPN and △SRP are all scalene triangles showing that their sides are different.
Given LM=9, NR=16 and SR=8
NR = NP+PR
Since NP = PR
NR = NP+NP
NR =2NP
NP = NR/2 = 16/2
NP = 8
From △LSM, NP = PR = <u>MS</u><u> = 8</u>
Also since LM = MN, MN = 9
From △SRP, SR = RP = <u>PS = 9</u>
Also SR =<u> MP = 8</u>
From the equation above, perimeter of △SMP = ||MS|| + ||MP|| + ||SP||
perimeter of △SMP = 8+8+9
perimeter of △SMP = 25
