F=60, s=60/2=30

(60-x)/(30-x)=4

60-x=120-4x

60+3x=120

3x=60

x=20  

s=30-x

s=30-20

s=10

So the boy was 10 years old when his father was four times his age.

What is another way to write to 72- (-25) ?
Valentin [98]

Your answer would be 1, or 72+25.

What is happening in this case is a negative number is being subtracted from a positive. This means you are taking away a negative. The two negatives cancel each other out, and then it becomes you are adding a positive.

Another way I like to think about this is the two minus symbols combine together to form a plus sign.

Hope this helped!

A circle has an area of 314.1592. What is the diameter? (round to the nearest whole number)
ad-work [718]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is equal to pi*radius^2

We can then write this as

314.1592=π*r^2

We then divide pi to get

100=r^2

take the square root and you find that the radius equals around 10

The diameter is always equal to the radius times two which means that the diameter is 20

hope this helps
