Quadratic equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Murrr4er [49]3 years ago

Answer:

<h2>            46</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x          -  age of a son three years ago

3x        -  age of a father three years ago

x + 3      -  age of the son now

3x + 3       -  age of the father now

x + 3 + 5       -  age of the son in five years time

3x + 3 + 5       -  age of the father in five years time

in five years time, the father will be twice as old as his son, so:

3x + 3 + 5 = 2(x + 3 + 5)

3x + 8 = 2x + 16

3x - 2x = 16 - 8

  x = 8

x + 3 + 4       -  age of the son in four years time

8 + 3 + 4 = 15

3x + 3 + 4       -  age of the father in four years time

3×8 + 3 + 4 = 31    

the sum of their ages in four years time:

15 + 31 = 46

Solve each equation for the unknown <br>1. 5 + y = 7.<br>2. 3.8 = a + 2.5<br>5. + p = 9 1/3 ​
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

1. 5 + y = 7

⇒ y = 7 - 5

⇒<u>y = 5</u>

2.  3.8 = a + 2.5

⇒ a = 2.5 - 3.8

⇒ <u>a = -1.3</u>

3. 5 + p = 9 1/3 ​

⇒ p = 9 1/3 - 5

⇒ p = 28/3 - 5

⇒ p = 28/3 - 15/3

⇒ p = 13/3

⇒<u> </u><u>p = 4 1/3</u>

A triangle has side lengths of 21, 27, and 35 inches. Is it<br> right triangle?
DIA [1.3K]
Answer: No
In right triangle we have 30:60:90
and the ratios are
x: x root of 3: 2x
so, for example, if we have side of length 3 against 30 degrees, then against 60 degrees the side will be 3 root of 3, and against 90 degrees it will be 6.
Hope it helps!

What is -2√20-√125 in simplest radical form
solong [7]
√20 the prime factors are 2, 2, 5 so
-2 * √4 *√5
-2*2*√5
-4√5 is the first part ,
now for √125, use prime factorization ,
all prime factors that make up 125 is
5, 5, 5 so √125 can be separated to √25√5 and √25 = 5 so the second part is 5√5.
now -4√5 - 5√5 = -9√5.
therefore answer is -9√5
