Answer:
8 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount in the glass after m minutes can be described by ...
a = 4 + 3/2m
We want to find m when a=16, so ...
16 = 4 + 3/2m
12 = 3/2m . . . . . subtract 4
8 = m . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/3
It will take 8 minutes to fill the glass.
Answer:
It's 16 units. Just look at the lengths and how many times they are on a shape. The shape is a rectangle, which means there will be two of each length, so just add them all together. 6+6+2+2=16
Answer:
I had it before and it is 15 ft²
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the son's age now. Then s+32 is the father's age. In 4 years, we have ...
5(s+4) = (s+32)+4
5s +20 = s +36 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
4s = 16 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract s+20
s = 4
The son is now 4 years old; the father, 36.
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
In 4 years, the ratio of ages is ...
father : son = 5 : 1
The difference of their ages at that time is 5-1 = 4 "ratio units". Since the difference in ages is 32 years, each ratio unit must stand for 32/4 = 8 years. That is, the future age ratio is ...
father : son = 40 : 8
So, now (4 years earlier), the ages must be ...
father: 36; son: 4.
