Answer:

Jordans' age = 31 ; Anna's age = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations relating their ages

J + A = 50 → (1)

J = 12 + A → (2)

Substitute J = 12 + A into (1)

12 + A + A = 50

12 + 2A = 50 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

2A = 38 ( divide both sides by 2 )

A = 19

Substitute A = 19 into (2)

J = 12 + 19 = 31

Then Jordans' age = 31 ; Anna's age = 19

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

J = 12 + A equation 1

J + A = 50 equation 2

Solving equation 2

J + A = 50

A = 50 - J equation 3

Putting value of A in equation 1

J = 12 + A

J = 12 + 50 - J

Bringing like terms on one side

J + J = 12 + 50

2J = 62

J = 62/2 = 31

Putting value of J in equation 3

A = 50 - J

A = 50 - 31 = 19

Checking answer by putting values in equation 2

J + A = 50

31 + 19 = 50

50 = 50

So the age of Jordan is 31 and Anna is 19

sesenic [268]

Answer:

30°, 30° and 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given in the question.

let x be the measure of each congruent base angle , then

the third angle = 3x + 30

Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

3x + 30 + x + x = 180, that is

5x + 30 = 180 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

5x = 150 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 30

Thus

The 2 congruent bas angles are each = 30°

The third angle = 3x + 30 = 3(30) + 30 = 90 + 30 = 120°

How does the amount of principal affect the number of years the rule of 72 predicted in the example above?
NeTakaya

Answer:

If the interest per quarter is 4% (but interest is only compounded annually), then it will take (72 / 4) = 18 quarters or 4.5 years to double the principal. If the population of a nation increases at the rate of 1% per month, it will double in 72 months, or six years.

Step-by-step explanation:
