The present age of Ahmed and Ahmed's father is 12 and 36 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ahmed's father is thrice as old as Ahmed. After 12 years, his age will be twice that of his son.

To Find : Their present age ?

Solution :

Let the Ahmed's age be 'x'.

Ahmed's father is thrice as old as Ahmed.

i.e. Ahmed's father age is '3x'

After 12 years, his age will be twice that of his son.

i.e. 3x+12 = 2(x+12)3x+12=2(x+12)

Solving the equation,

3x+12 = 2x+243x+12=2x+24

x=12x=12

So, Ahmed's age is 12.

Ahmed's father age is 3\times 12=363×12=36

Therefore, The present age of Ahmed and Ahmed's father is 12 and 36 respectively.

Y=6x/5 +27 find y-intercept and slope

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

General equation of a line is given by y = mx +c, where m is the gradient /slope, c is the intercept. To find for the intercept on y- axis, put x = 0.
$y = \frac{6(0)}{5 } + 27 \\ y = \frac{0}{5} + 27 \\ y = 27 \\ therefore \: the \: intercept \: on \: y \: is \: 27 \\$
By comparison,
$y = mx + \: c \\ y = \frac{6}{5} x \: +27 \\ m = \frac{6}{5 \: } \: \\ hence \: slope \: is \: \frac{6}{5}$

Which of the following circles have their centers in the second quadrant? Check all that apply.

ivann1987 [24]

The given circles are given in standard form:
(x - xc)² + (y - yc)² = r²

The second quadrant is the one that has negative x coordinates and positive y coordinates.

This said, let's see all your options:
A) (x - 5)² + (y - 6)² = 25
xc = -(-5) = +5
yc = -(-6) = +6
C (5 , 6) is in the first quadrant.

B) (x + 1)² + (y - 7)² = 16
xc = -(+1) = -1
yc = -(-7) = +7
C (-1 , 7) is in the second quadrant.

C) (x - 4)² + (y + 3)² = 32
xc = -(-4) = +4
yc = -(+3) = -3
C (4, -3) is in the fourth quadrant.

<span> D) (x + 2)² + (y - 5)²= 9</span>
xc = -(+2) = -2
yc = -(-5) = +5
C (-2 , +5) is in the second quadrant.

Therefore, the correct answers are B and D.
