Let us always base on the present age. We denote this by x. Now, the age he had 2 years ago would then be denoted as (x-2). Let's equate this to 20 years old.
x - 2 = 20
x = 20 + 2
x = 22 years old
He should be 22 years old now.
Let's check the other condition. After 1 year, his age should be (x+1). Let's equate this to 23 years old.
x + 1 = 23
x = 23 - 1
x = 22
Thus, this is possible if Reuben is 22 years old as of the present.
An
amusement park ride has a moving platform attached to four swinging arms. The
platform swings back and forth, higher and higher, until it goes over the top
and around in a circular motion. In the diagram below, AD and BC represent two of the swinging arms, and DC <span>is parallel to the ground
</span>(line l). Explain
why the moving platform AB <span>is always parallel to the ground.</span>

Answer:
Her account balance after 5 years is $8702.87
Step-by-step explanation:
1500 (1.05) = 1575 --> after one year
1575 + 1500 = 3075
3075 (1.05) = 3228.75 --> after two years
3228.75 + 1500 = 4728.75
4728.75 (1.05) = 4965.1875 --> after three years
4965.1875 + 1500 = 6465.1875
6465.1875 (1.05) = 6788.44688 --> after four years
6788.44688 + 1500 = 8288.44688
8288.44688 (1.05) = 8702.86922 --> after five years = $8702.87
