sana is senior to Mona by 18 years after 6 years.Sana will be twice as old as Mona. find Mona,s percentage

1 answer:

3 0

Let
Present age of Sana = s
Present age of Mona = m

Sana is senior to Mona by 18 years
s=m+18............(1)

After 6 years
Sana will be = s+6
Mona will be = m+6
Then
Sana will be twice as old as Mona
(s+6)=2(m+6)
s+6=2m+12
s=2m+12-6
s=2m+6.............(2)
Put the value of s from (2) to (1)
2m+6=m+18
2m-m=18-6
m=12
Put the value of m in (1)
s=m+18
s=12+18
s=30

Present age of Sana = s = 30 years old
Present age of Mona = m = 12 years old

Find the two square roots of 144.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The square root function

sqrt(144) or √144 produces a single positive value, 12.

However if you have an equation

x² = 144, then you have two possible values for x, 12 and -12.

Two ways to look at it.

x² - 144 = 0

Difference of two squares

(x+12)(x-12) = 0

x = -12, 12

x² = 144

x = ±√144

x = ±12

x = -12, 12

ariel is saving money for a new computer that costs $650. she has $150, which she puts into an account. then she adds $25 each w

Oksanka [162]

20 weeks

The initial equation is 25x+150=650. Since she already has 150, we can subtract that from the total to get 500. We now have that 25x=500. Divide by 25 on both sides to get 20 weeks
