Answer:

The length of each red rod is 10 cm and the length of each blue rod is 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of each red rod in centimeters

y ----> the length of each blue rod in centimeters

we know that

3x=2y+2 ----> equation A

3y=4x+2 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (10,14)

see the attached figure

therefore

The length of each red rod is 10 cm and the length of each blue rod is 14 cm

ZARA'S DAD IS 6 TIMES OLDER THAN ZARA. THE PRODUCT THEIR AGE IS 150 YEARS. CALCULATE THEIR RESPECTIVE AGES
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Zara = 5
Her Dad = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say Zara's age is "z"
So, her dad's age must be 6 x z = 6z
As its given that there product is 150 so we can also write it as :

z x 6z = 150
6z to the power 2 = 150
z to the power 2 = 150 divided by 6
                            = 25
So, z = 5
So Zara's age is 5 so her dad's age must be 30

Before 8 A.M., there were 64 trucks and 24 cars in a parking lot. Between 8 A.M. and 9 A.M., more cars entered the parking lot a
malfutka [58]

Answer:

232 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of cars that entered is c.

At 9:00 am, there are a total of 24 + c cars and 64 trucks. We know that this value of 64 represents 1/5 of the total number of vehicles. The total number of vehicles is (24 + c) + 64 = 88 + c. So, we have:

64/(88 + c) = 1/5

Cross-multiply:

88 + c = 64 * 5 = 320

c = 320 - 88 = 232

Thus, the answer is 232 cars.

Note: as 232 doesn't show up in the answer choices, it's possible that the problem was copied correctly.
