Answer:

  • Sara is 10 and Laila is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Sara's age = s
  • Laila's age = l

<u>The ratios:</u>

  • s/l = 5/4 ⇒ s = 5l/4
  • (s + 2)/(l + 2) = 6/5 ⇒ 5(s + 2) = 6(l + 2) ⇒ 5s = 6l + 2

<u>Substitute s into the second equation and solve for l:</u>

  • 5(5l/4) = 6l + 2
  • 25l = 24l + 8
  • l = 8

<u>Fins s:</u>

  • s = 5*8/4 = 10

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

B. 13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

let

(x1 , y1) = (-4 , -6)

(x2 , y2) = (1 , 6)

distance between CD = root (x2 - x1)^3 + (y2 - y1)

= root {1 - ( -4)}^2 + {6 - ( -6)}^2

= root {1 +4}^2 + {6+6}^2

= root 5^2 + 12^2

= root 25 + 144

= root 169

= 13 units ans
