We can represent this situation by the equation 2x+4x+5x=33.

Then 11x=33, and x = 3.  

Then the children's ages are in the ratio 2x:4x:5x, or 2(3):4(3):5(3), or

6:12:15.

Do these 3 ages add up to 33?  6 + 12 + 15 = 33?  YES!

The children's ages are 6, 12 and 15 years respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the given ages be 2x , 4x and 5x.

Here,

2x + 4x +5x =33

or,x = 33/ 11

or,x =3

Hence,

2x =2 (3)=6years

4x=4(3)=12years

5x=5(3)=15years

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Kristen = 8 hours

Kristen and Courtney = 6 hours

Courtney = x hours

in six hours kirsten can do 6/8 of the job

6/8 = 3/4

So kirsten is going to be doing 3/4 of the job

Courtney is only going to do 1/4 of the job

Number of hours it takes Courtney to do the job

6/x = 1/4

Cross product

6 * 4 = x * 1

24 = x

x = 24 hours

It will take Courtney 24 hours to type a 50-page paper on her own

Can someone help me please. (TROLLS WILL BE REPORTED!!!)
denpristay [2]

Answer:

B.) 54π units²

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the height of the cone. We can do this using the Pythagreom Theorem.

a² + b² = c²                              <----- Pythagreom Theorem

3² + b² = 15²                            <----- Insert side lengths

9 + b² = 225                            <----- Solve 3² and 15²

b² = 216                                   <----- Subtract 9 from both sides

b = 14.7 units                          <---- Take square root of 216

Now, we can use the surface area of a right cone equation to find the final answer.

r = 3 units

h = 14.7 units

SA = πr(r + √(h² + r²))                              <----- Surface Area equation

SA = π(3)(3 + √(14.7² + 3²))                     <----- Insert values

SA = π(3)(3 + √(216 + 9))                         <----- Solve 14.7² and 3²

SA = π(3)(3 + √225)                                <----- Add 216 and 9

SA = π(3)(3 + 15)                                     <----- Take square root of 225

SA = π(3)(18)                                            <----- Add 3 and 15

SA = 54π units²                                     <----- Multiply 3 and 18

Replace ? with an expression that will make the equation valid.
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

4x³

Step-by-step explanation:

d/dx ln(x⁴ + 7) = 1/(x⁴ + 7) × _?

To obtain the missing expression, let us simplify d/dx ln(x⁴ + 7). This can be obtained as follow:

Let y = ln (x⁴ + 7)

Let u = (x⁴ + 7)

Therefore,

ln(x⁴ + 7) = ln u

Thus,

y = ln u

dy/du = 1/u

Next, we shall determine du/dx. This is illustrated below:

u = (x⁴ + 7)

du/dx = 4x³

Finally, we shall determine dy/dx of ln (x⁴ + 7) as follow:

dy/dx = dy/du × du/dx

dy/du = 1/u

du/dx = 4x³

dy/dx = 1/u × 4x³

But:

u = (x⁴ + 7)

Therefore,

dy/dx = 1/(x⁴ + 7) × 4x³

Thus, the missing expression is 4x³
