Answer:
Mrs. B's age = y = 38 years
her son's age = x = 8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
To Find:
Mrs. B's age = y =?
her son's age = x = ?
Solution:
Let Mrs. B's age be 'y' years
and her son's age be 'x' years
Three years ago Mrs B's will be (y - 3) and her son's age will be (x - 3)
According to the first given condition,
y = 6 + 4x ...............Equation ( 1 )
According to the second given condition,
(y - 3 ) = 7 (x - 3 )..........Equation ( 2 )
equating equation 1 in equation 2 we get
6 + 4x -3 = 7x - 21
7x - 4x = 21 + 3
∴ 
Now substitute x in equation 1 we get
y = 6 + 4×8
y = 6 + 32
∴ y = 38 years
Mrs. B's age = y = 38 years
her son's age = x = 8 years
when u have a common a denominator then you just add the numerator that would be 7 and 9. 7 + 9= 16
so ur solution would be 16/22 and then u would simplify by dividing both values by 2.
so the solution is8/11
Y to the power of 2 over 2x to the power of 3
Answer:
Tn = 6.4 + 1.8n
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Sequence: 8.2, 10, 11.8, 13.6
Required
The formula of the sequence.
First, the type of the sequence needs to be determined (arithmetic or geometric)
It is an arithmetic sequence because each successive sequence is separated by a common difference..
The common difference is represented by d and it's calculated as follows.
d = 10 - 8.2 or 11.8 - 10 or 13.6 - 11.8
Each of the above gives
d = 1.8
Now, that we have the common difference; the next is to determine the formula using the Arithmetic Progression formula.
Tn = T1 + (n - 1)d
Where T1 is the first term of the progression; T1 = 8.2
By substituting 8.2 for T1 and 1.8 for d.
This gives
Tn = 8.2 + (n - 1) * 1.8
Open bracket
Tn = 8.2 + 1.8 * n - 1 * 1.8
Tn = 8.2 + 1.8n - 1.8
Collect like terms
Tn = 8.2 - 1.8 + 1.8n
Tn = 6.4 + 1.8n
Hence, the formula of the sequence is Tn = 6.4 + 1.8n
MLN is an isosceles triangle
ML = MN
3x = x + 8
Subtract x from both sides
2x = 8
Divide both sides by 2
x = 4
MN = 4 + 8 = 12
Answer
A. 12
