Answer: 9 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Ashley be x.
Then the present age of Alfonso =x+8
Five years ago,
Ashley's age = x-5
Alfonso's age = x+8-5 = x+3
According to the question,
Hence, the present age of Ashley =9 years
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3^(4x + 2) = 9^(x + 2)
Make 9 with base 3.
3^(4x + 2) = (3^2)^(x + 2)
3^(4x + 2) = 3^(2x + 4)
Cancel bases.
4x + 2 = 2x + 4
Subtract 2 and 2x on both sides.
4x - 2x = 4 - 2
2x = 2
Divide 2 on both sides.
x = 1
If we were to put this in terms of a venn diagram, we would have 360 owning only brand X, 500 owning only brand Y, and 80 in between, owning both. Therefore, 80 out of the 580 owners of brand Y may have X as well, which we put into fraction form 80/580, and reduce to 4/29.
<span>Let x equal the repeating decimal you are trying to convert to a fraction.Examine the repeating decimal to find the repeating digit(s)<span>Place the repeating digit(s) to the left of the decimal point.</span></span>
1/5 of 80 =16
16x4=64
this means he needs 16 more dollars
16/7.75=2.06451612903
this means that he has to work for two more hours.
hope this helps :)
