Answer:

  • Kim is 13
  • Jack is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k represent Kim's age. Then Jack's age is k-5 and the total of their ages is ...

  k + (k -5) = 21

  2k = 26 . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms

  k = 13 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; Kim's age

  k -5 = 8 . . . . . . . Jack's age

Kim is 13; Jack is 8.

Answer:

5 is 35 and 6 is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve 5, you need to know how many degrees is the line, which is 180 because lines are 180 degrees. You then subtract 110 from 180 which equals to 70. What you have left now is 2k. A number times 2 will equal to 70, so k=35.

For 6, if you ever see two lines intersecting each other, it means that it is 360 degrees. We already have one angle, which is 120. The other angle is d+70 degrees, and any angle that is reflecting the other angle will have the same value. So, d equals 50

KiRa [710]

Step-by-step explanation:

By rotating a figure,

The length of its sides remain the same.

Therefore line AB = line A'B'.

=> 5x - 14 = 4x + 4

=> x = 18

Hence, line AB = 5(18) - 14 = 76.
