Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of CD will be twice the distance from the midpoint to the endpoint
To calculate the length use the distance formula
d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, 3)
d = 2 ×
= 2 ×
= 2 ×
= 2 ×
= 2 × 2 = 4
← exact length
Answer:
8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let age of father be f
age of John be j
age of Alice be a
John's father is 5 times as old as John. We can write:
f = 5j
John is twice as old as Alice. We can write:
j = 2a
or
a = j/2
SUM OF ALL OF THEIR AGES (after 2 years) will be 58. We can write:
f+2 + j+2 + a+2 = 58
This becomes:
f + j + a + 6 = 58
f + j + a = 52
Now, we replace third equation with the first two (in bold) and get:
So John is 8 years old
