To solve this problem, we need to recognize that Harry's age is given as "n". We can use this value and the given information to write expressions representing each person's age.
For Example, Jo is 2 years older than Harry and Harry's age is represented by the variable n. This means that n (Harry's age) plus 2 would equal Jo's age. This can be represented by the expression: n +2.
Next, we know that Kate is twice as old as Jo, and Jo's age is represented by the expression n+2. This means that 2 times Jo's age would be equal to Kate's age, or Kate's age = 2(n+2) or 2n +4.
Therefore, your answer is that Jo's age is n + 2 and Kate's age is 2n + 4.
Hope this helps!
- 5/12 + ( - 1/4) =
Adding two negatives results in a negative
-1/4 = -3/12
-3/12 + -5/12 = -8/12
-8/12 + 3/12 < Subtract and take the sign of the BIGGER number.
8 - 3 = 5
- 5/12
Answer: - 5/12
Answer:
140° and 50°
Step-by-step explanation:
The supplement of the angle (180 - x)
The complement of the angle = (90 - x)
(180 -x) = 4(90-x) - 60
180 - x = 360 -4x - 60
180 -x = 300 - 4x
180 - x + 4x = 300
180 + 3x = 300
3x = 120
x = 40
The supplement (180 - x) = 180 - 40 = 140°
The complement (90 - x) = 90 - 40 = 50°
