The sum of Sasha’s and Natalie’s ages is 31. Twice Natalie’s age is 11 years more than Sasha’s age. Find each of their ages

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Natalie's age is 14

Sasha's age is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Sasha's age be "s", and

Natalie's age be "n"

Sum of Sasha and Natalie is 31:

s + n = 31

Twice Natalie is 11 more than Sasha:

2n = s + 11

We ca solve this equation for s first:

s = 2n - 11

We put this into first equation and solve for n first:

s + n = 31

2n - 11 + n = 31

3n = 31 + 11

3n = 42

n = 42/3 = 14

Natalie's age is 14

Also, s = 2n - 11

s = 2(14) - 11

s = 28 - 11

s = 17

Sasha's age is 17

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Yes, this is a valid inference because she took a random sample of the neighborhood.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, Sue's survey was perfectly random and without any prejudice.

18% of the families, according to her research, would volunteer at the shelter. According to her, 18% of the local households should be required to volunteer at the animal shelter.

Therefore, given that she chose a representative sample of the area, her conclusion is valid.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Fraction of the garden used = $\frac{5}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The fifth graders to plant a butterfly garden.

We are given that

Clover grows in ½ of the garden

Daisies grow in ¼ of the garden

Coneflowers grow in ⅛ of the garden

milkweed grows in ⅛ of the garden

The fifth graders notice that the butterflies land on the clover and milkweed.

We are asked to find out the fraction of the garden that the butterflies used.

Fraction of the garden used = clover + milkweed

Fraction of the garden used = $\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{8}$

The LCM of 2 and 8 is 8

Fraction of the garden used = $\frac{4 +1}{8}$

Fraction of the garden used = $\frac{5}{8}$

Therefore, the butterflies used $\frac{5}{8}$ fraction of the garden.

PLZ HELP ASAP TANGENTS OF CIRCLES PROBLEMS

quester [9]

A circumscribed angle is that which is formed by the intersection of the two tangent lines in a circle. With this, we can conclude that segments AC and AB are tangent to circle O. The tangent lines forms a right angle with the radius of the circle drawn from the center of the circle to the tangent point.

By the explanation above, we can say that angles C and B are equal to 90° and that triangle ACO and triangle ABO are congruent. Which means that segment AC is equal to segment AB. Thus, the length of AB is also 4.
