Answer:

54 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Joyce age = x

Alex age = y

3x = 2y - - - (1)

y - 9 = 2(x - 9)

y - 9 = 2x - 18

-9 + 18 = 2x - y

9 = 2x - y

y = 2x - 9 - - (2)

3x = 2y

3x = 2(2x - 9)

3x = 4x - 18

18 = 4x - 3x

18 = x

Hence,

Mrs stone is 3 * 18 = 54 years

Which of the following transformations are used when transforming the graph of the parent function...
hram777 [196]

1. 1st transformation is translation the parent function y=\log_5x 6 units to the right to get the function y=\log_5(x-6).

2. 2nd transformation is reflection the function y=\log_5(x-6) over the x-axis. This transformation gives you the function y=-\log_5(x-6).

3. 3rd transformation is vertical stretch of the function y=-\log_5(x-6) by a factor of 2 to get the function y=-2\log_5(x-6).

Only last two are present in options, then

liraira [26]

Answer:

2/5, 0.4, 40%

7/10, 0.7, 70%

1/2, 0.5, 50%

1/2, 0.5, 50%

4/5, 0.8, 80%

3/5, 0.6, 60%

3/10, 0.3 ; 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)

P(less Than 5) :

Required = (1, 2, 3, 4) = 4 observations

P(less than 5) = 4 / 10 = 2 / 5 = 0.4 = 40%

Greater than 3) = (4, 5,6,7,8,9,10) = 7 observations

P greater Than 3) = 7/10 = 0.7 = 70%

Odd = (1,3,5,7,9) = 5

P(odd) = 5 / 10 = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%

(even) = (2,4,6,8,10) = 5

P(even) = 5 / 10 = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%

Not a multiple of 4 = (1,2, 3,5,6,7,9,10) = 8

P(not A multiple of 4) = 8/10 = 4/5 = 0.8 = 80%

not 5, 6, 7, or 8 = (1,2,2,4,9,10).= 6

P(not 5, 6, 7, or 8) = 6 / 10 = 3/5 = 0.6 = 60%

Divisible by 3 = (3, 6, 9) = 3

P(divisible by 3). = 3/10 = 0.3 = 30%
