Can the ratio of a parent's age to his or her child's age ever be exactly 3:2

Mathematics

Sure.

Baby born when parents are 18.  In 36 years, the ratio is 54:36 = 3:2.
Baby born when parents are 19.  In 38 years, the ratio is 57:38 = 3:2
Baby born when parents are 20.  In 40 years, the ratio is 60:40 = 3:2
Baby born when parents are 21.  In 42 years, the ratio is 63:42 = 3:2
.
.
.
Baby born when parents are 30.  In 60 years, the ratio is 90:60 = 3:2
Baby born when parents are 31.  In 62 years, the ratio is 93:62 = 3:2
Baby born when parents are 32.  In 64 years, the ratio is 96:64 = 3:2
Baby born when parents are 33.  In 66 years, the ratio is 99:66 = 3:2

So there you have 16 possibilities that can give you the ratio of 3:2 ,
for parents having a child when they're 18 or older, and living to less
than 100.

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH MY ALGEBRA 1.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7-2^{2}+17}{-14+(2)(5)}

Multiply 2 · 2 = 4

\frac{7-4+17}{-14+(2)(5)}

Subtract 4 - 7 = 3

\frac{3+17}{-14+(2)(5)}

Add 3 + 17 = 20

\frac{20}{-14+(2)(5)}

Multiply 2 · 5 = 10

\frac{20}{-14+10}

Add -14 + 10 = -4

\frac{20}{-4}

Divide 20 ÷ 4 = -5

-5

7.8 X 103<br>--------------<br>1.2 X 104<br>​
Strike441 [17]

;-;

Let's just do a bunch of math below.

7.8 X 103          ?

-------------- =    ------

1.2 X 104           ?

So, first, we're gonna do 7.8 multiplied by 103 to get 803.4.

Thus....

7.8 X 103         803.4

--------------   =  -----------

1.2 X 104              ?

Then we would do 1.2 multipied with 104 to get a product of 124.8.

Therefore....

7.8 X 103         803.4

--------------   =  -----------

1.2 X 104           124.8

Dividing 803.4 by 124.8 would get you a quotient of 6.4375.

Your answer is 6.3475.~

Have a nice day~

What is the probability that if 13 letters are typed, no letters are repeated?
faltersainse [42]

If there are 13 letters typed, the probability that no letters will be repeated can be found to be 1.05 x 10⁻²⁰

<h3>How to find the probability no letters are repeated?</h3>

First, find the number of possibilities of 13 letters from 26 letters in the alphabet as:

= 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26 x 26

= 6.156 x 10³⁶ possibilities

If the numbers are not to be repeated then the possibilities are:

= 26 x 25 x 24 x 23 x 22 x 21 x 20 x 19 x 18 x 17 x 16 x 15 x 14

= 64764752532480000 possibilities

The probability that no letters are repeated is:

= 64764752532480000 / 6.156 x 10³⁶

= 0.0000000000000000000105

= 1.05 x 10⁻²⁰

Renting a canoe in a nautical center costs $ 5 per hour and $ 5 for each additional hour. Determine the equation of the function
nasty-shy [4]

Answer: 5 + 5w

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the variable <em>x </em>to describe each additional hour, although the vairable can be substituted for any other vairable.

We know that the main cost for one hour is $5, and that each additional hour will cost $5.

Therefore, the equation to reflect this situation would be 5 + 5w, because the first 5 represents the first hour, and the 5w represents how much each hour costs. If you rent two extra hours, then the cost would end up being 15, because the equation would become: 5 + (5x2) = 15.

The equation is 5 + 5w. Hope this helps, and good luck!
