Answer:

Amrita = 14 years old

Aman = 6 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out the difference of the units.

7 - 3 = 4

Amrita is 4 units/8 years older than Aman.

4 units = 8

1 unit = 8 ÷ 4 = 2

Amrita is 7 units and her brother is 3 units.

Amrita = 7 units x 2 = 14

Aman = 3 units x 2 = 6

the length of a rectangle is 4 meters less than twice its width. The area of the rectangle is 70. Find the dimensions of the rec
Savatey [412]

Answer:  The width is 7 meters. The length is 10 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:   Area = Length × width

Length is 2w - 4  

Substitute that value for length, then solve for w.

70 = w(2w - 4)

70 = 2w² - 4w  reorganize to quadratic equation form

2w² - 4w -70 = 0   These are All even numbers; factor out 2 (divide all by 2)

w² - 2w - 35 = 0  factor this

(w - 7)(w + 5)    set each factor = 0 and calculate the value of w.

w+5=0  w= -5  (disregard this one because dimensions of real rectangles can't be negative)

w - 7 = 0  w = 7   <u>The width is 7</u>

Substitute into the original expressions to get the value of Length.

2(7) -4 = L    14 - 4 = L  The<u> Length is 10.</u>

Check by substituting into the original equation:

w × 2w -4 = 70

7 × 2(7) -4 = 70

7 × 10 = 70    TRUE!

Answer:

a) x > − 24 \frac{3}{4}

b) x < − 3

c) q < 56

Step-by-step explanation:

a) −2/5x−9<9/10

<=> 2/5x + 9 > − 9/10

<=> 2/5x > − 9/10 − 9

<=> 2×2/2×5x > − 9/10 − 9×10/10

<=> 4/10x > − 99/10

<=> x > − 99/4

<=> x > − 24 \frac{3}{4}

b) 4x+6<−6

<=> 4x < − 6 − 6

<=> 4x < − 12

<=> x < − 12/4

<=> x < − 3

c) q+12−2(q−22)>0

<=> q+12−2q −2×(−22)>0

<=> (q−2q) + (12+ 44) >0

<=> −q + 56 >0

<=> q < 56

Which expressions are equivalent to the given expression.<br> y^-8y^3x^0x^-2​
vesna_86 [32]

y^{-8} y^3 x^0 x^{-2} is equivalent to y ^{-5} x ^{-2}\\.

<h3>What is a simplification of an expression?</h3>

Usually, simplification involves proceeding with the pending operations in the expression.

Simplification usually involves making the expression simple and easy to use later.

Given;

y^{-8} y^3 x^0 x^{-2}

Simplify

y^{-8} y^3 x^0 x^{-2}\\\\y ^{-8+3} x ^{0-2}\\ \\y ^{-5} x ^{-2}\\

Hence, y^{-8} y^3 x^0 x^{-2} is equivalent to y ^{-5} x ^{-2}\\.
