Bill's age = x

Eya's age = 3x - 5

Eya is 28

28 = 3x - 5

28 (+5) = 3x -5 (+5)

33 = 3x

33/3 = 3x/3

x = 11

Bill = x

x = 11

Bill is 11 years old

hope this helps

Two different factories both produce a certain automobile part. The probability that a component from the first factory is defec
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

a. 55.56%

b. 44.44%

c. 3.33%

d. 33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

total supply =  180

a. In the first factory the total number obtained = 100

probability that the chosen part is from the first

= 100/180

= 0.5556

= 55.56%

b. In the second factory total = 80

probability that the chosen part is from the second

= 80/180

= 0.4444

= 44.44%

c. probability that part chosen at random from 180 is defective

= 2% * 0.5556 + 5% * 0.4444

= 0.02*0.5556 + 0.05*0.4444

=  0.011112 + 0.0222

= 0.03331

= 3.33%

d. probability it came rom the first factory if it is defective

\frac{0.02*0.5556}{0.02*0.5556+0.05*0.4444}

= \frac{0.011112}{0.011112+0.0222}

= \frac{0.011112}{0.033312}

= 0.33357

= 33.33%

Brian is 2 years older than Malachy. Caroline is 8 years younger than Malachy. If the total of their ages is 66, how old is the
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The eldest of them is Brian and he is 24 + 2 = 26 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Malachy age = a

Brian age = a + 2

Caroline age = a - 8

Total of their age = a + (a + 2) + (a - 8)

66 = a + (a + 2) + (a - 8)

collect like terms

66 = a + a + 2 + a - 8

66 = a + a + a - 6

3a = 66 + 6

3a = 72

divide both sides by 3

a = 72/3

a = 24

Malachy age is 24 . Caroline is 24 - 8 = 16 years old.

The eldest of them is Brian and he is 24 + 2 = 26 years old.
