Answer:
1 : 12 : 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A, G, C represent the ages of Alex, George, and Carl, respectively. We are told that ...
A = G +12
C = 3A . . . . . . . we read this as "3 times as old"; not "3 times older"
A + G + C = 68
Substituting for G and C, we have ...
A + (A -12) +(3A) = 68
5A = 80 . . . . . add 12
A = 16 . . . . . . . divide by 5
The other ages are then ...
G = A-12 = 16 -12 = 4
C = 3A = 3·16 = 48
The ratios are ...
G : C : A = 4 : 48 : 16
G : C : A = 1 : 12 : 4

Answer:
Equation ----> 2(c - 40)
c = -40
Step-by-step explanation:
2(c - 40)
= (2c) - (80)
= 2c - 80
=
+ 
c = -40
<span>A = l x w
Since
l = 3w
Substitute the l with 3w
The formula will be
A = 3w + w
A = 4w
An example:
The
given known values are: Length of 4 cm Width is unknown Perimeter is 34
cm Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Since the geometric formula
for perimeter is: </span>
P= 2 (l + w)
L = 2w – 4 cm
W =?
Derivation and solution:
34 = 2 (2w - 4) + 2w <span>
34 = 4w – 8 + 2w</span>
42 = 6w 42/6 = w
W = 7 cm
34 = 2l + 2(7)
34 = 2l + 14
2l = 34 – 14
2l = 20
L = 20/2
L = 10 cm<span> <span>
