Answer:

son = 10 , father = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Five years ago the age of son be x years and age of father be 7x years

Present age of son =x+5

Present age of father =7x+5

5 years later their age will (x+10) and (7x+10)

∴7x+10=3(x+10)

7x−3x=20

4x=20

x=5

So, the present age of son=x+5=5+5=10years

and the present age of father=7x+5=35+5=40years

The prices of consumer goods do not always exactly follow the CPI. The following chart shows several consumer items, along with
zloy xaker [14]

The reasonable estimate of the current customer price index is 195. The option B is the correct option.

<h3>Customer price index</h3>

Customer price index is the price index which measures the weight average of price of basket of customers goods or services.

It can be given as,

\rm CPI_t=\dfrac{C_t}{C_0}\times 100

Here \rm C_t is the cost of market basket in current period and \rm C_0 is the cost of market basket in the base period.

Cost of market basket in current period is

\rm C_t=15.66+119.75+23.99+37.50\\\\C_t=196.9

Cost of market basket in 1983 is,

\rm C_0=8.85+71.25+13.95+22.7\\\\C_0=116.8

Substitute all the values in the formula

\rm CPI_t=\dfrac{C_t}{C_0}\times 100\\\\\rm CPI_t=\dfrac{196.9}{116.8}\times 100\\\\\rm CPI_t=1.685\times 100 \\\\ CPI_t=168.5\\\\\rm CPI_t= 170 \ \rm approx

Thus the value of current CPI is 168.5 which is near about the 170.

Hence, the reasonable estimate of the current customer price index is 195. The option B is the correct option.

peter has 6/7 of a stack of baseball cards left. If he is planning on splitting what he has left into stacks that are each 3/28
DIA [1.3K]
<h3>Answer:  8</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

Let's say there are 28 cards in a full stack.

6/7 = 24/28 after multiplying top and bottom by 4

Since he has 24/28 of a stack left, this means he has 24 cards left.

He wants to arrange the remaining cards into piles so that each pile consists of 3/28 of a full stack. In other words, he wants each pile to have 3 cards.

So this must mean he will get 24/3 = 8 piles

(8 piles)*(3 cards per pile) = 8*3 = 24 cards total
