Answer:

1. Their ages are:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8

2. Their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11

3. Their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9

4. Their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We make the assumption that:

S = Steve's age

A = Anne's age

In four years, we are going to have:

S + 4 = (A + 4)2 - 2 = 2A + 8 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 6 .................. (1)

Three years ago, we had:

S - 3 = (A - 3)3

S - 3 = 3A - 9

S = 3A - 9 + 3

S = 3A – 6 …………. (2)

Substitute S from (2) into (1) and solve for A, we have:

3A – 6 + 4 = 2A + 6

3A – 2A = 6 + 6 – 4

A = 8

Substitute A = 8 into (3), we have:

S = (3 * 8) – 6 = 24 – 6

S = 18

Therefore, we have:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8.

2. We make the assumption that:

M = Max's age

B = Bert's age

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (B - 5)2

M - 5 = 2B - 10 .......................... (3)

A year from now, it will be:

(M + 1) + (B + 1) = 30

M + 1 + B + 1 = 30

M + B + 2 = 30

M = 30 – 2 – B

M = 28 – B …………………… (4)

Substitute M from (4) into (3) and solve for B, we have:

28 – B – 5 = 2B – 10

28 – 5 + 10 = 2B + B

33 = 3B

B = 33 / 3

B = 11

If we substitute B = 11 into equation (4), we will have:

M = 28 – 11

M = 17

Therefore, their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11.

3. We make the assumption that:

S = Sury's age

B = Billy's age

Now, we have:

S = B + 10 ................................ (5)

Next year, it will be:

S + 1 = (B + 1)2

S + 1 = 2B + 2 .......................... (6)

Substituting S from equation (5) into equation (6) and solve for B, we will have:

B + 10 + 1 = 2B + 2

10 + 1 – 2 = 2B – B

B = 9

Substituting B = 9 into equation (5), we have:

S = 9 + 10

S = 19

Therefore, their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9.

4. We make the assumption that:

M = The man's age

S = His son's age

Therefore, now, we have:

M = 3S ................................... (7)

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (S - 5)5

M - 5 = 5S - 25 ................ (8)

Substituting M = 3S from (7) into (8) and solve for S, we have:

3S - 5 = 5S – 25

3S – 5S = - 25 + 5

-2S = - 20

S = -20 / -2

S = 10

Substituting S = 10 into equation (7), we have:

M = 3 * 10 = 30

Therefore, their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10

X cubed = 64/27 A= ±8/3 B= 8/3 C= ±4/3 D= 4/3
Digiron [165]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

x³ = 64/27

Take the cube root of both sides.

x = ∛(64/27)

Distribute the cube root to the numerator and denominator.

x = (∛64)/(∛27)

Take the cube root of the terms.

x = 4/3

Given that 2(-x + 4)=3 prove that x=5/2
user100 [1]

Answer:

x = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

So firstly, you want to distribute. It'll make your life much easier.

-2x + 8 = 3

-2x = -5 (subtracting 8 from both sides)

x = 5/2 (dividing both sides by -2 to obtain x)

Hope this helps :)
