Answer:

10 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the age of the younger sister is x. Then the age of the older sister must be x + 2 because the ages are consecutive <em>even</em> numbers.

"Twice the age of the youngest exceeds the oldest by 8" means that we multiply x by 2 and set that equal to (x + 2) + 8:

2x = (x + 2) + 8

2x = x + 10

x = 10

So, the youngest sister is 10 years old.

What is 15% of 60?? Can someone plz tell me how to calculate this as well??? Thanks!!!
earnstyle [38]
To convert a percentage to a decimal you move the decimal two places to the left. Therefore:

15.% becomes .15

You then multiply this decimal to the number you are trying to find the percentage of.

.15 × 60 = 9.

9 is 15% of 60.

A car completes a journey at an average speed of 40km/h.At what speed must it travel on the return journey if the average speed
nalin [4]
The distance, s = 40t₁ where t₁ is the time to complete the outward journey.
The same distance = vt₂ where t₂ is the time to complete the return journey at speed v.
For the whole journey, 2s=60(t₁+t₂). Therefore s=30(t₁+t₂)=40t₁=vt₂.
30t₁+30t₂=40t₁, 10t₁=30t₂, t₁=3t₂, so s=120t₂=vt₂ and v=120kph.
