8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the son's age. The father's age is 3x and 3x - x = 24.

Therefore 2x = 24 and x = 12.

The son's age is 12 and the father's age is 36 at present.

Explain how finding 7x20 is similar to finding 7 x 2,000. Then find each product
Sphinxa [80]
7×20 and 7×2000 are similar. The amount of zeros are the dependent factor.

7×20= 140
7×2000= 14000

The base equation is 7×2=14
Any additions of zeroes in this formula will be added at the end result.

Ex.
7×2=14
7×20=140
7×200=1400
70×200=14000
700×200=140000

If the leading coefficient of a quadratic function is negative then the graph of the function extends from?
coldgirl [10]
I wouldn't use the phrase "extends from."  If the leading coeff. is neg, then the graph opens downward.  Without more info we do not know the max of this fn.  If we did know it, we could state that the graph max is (value) and that the graph "extends downward from this value."
