Answer:

- 120

Step-by-step explanation:

call x is the number you want to find

  1. (3/4 )x + 3\frac{1}{2} = (2/3)x - 6\frac{1}{2}
  2. (3/4)x + (7/2) = (2/3)x - (13/2)
  3. (3/4)x - (2/3)x = - (13 /2) - (7/2)
  4. (1/12)x = -10
  5. x = -10 / (1/12) = -120

Kevin is 4 times as old as Daniel and is also 6 years older than Daniel
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Part a) Daniel's age is 2 years

Part b) Kevin's age is 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is </em></u>

Part a) How old is Daniel?

Part b) How old is Kevin?

Let

x ----> Kevin's age

y ----> Daniel's age

we know that

x=4y-----> equation A

x=y+6 ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B

4y=y+6

solve for y

4y-y=6

3y=6

y=2

therefore

Daniel's age is 2 years

<em>Find the value of x</em>

substitute the value of y in any of the two equations

x=4(2)=8\ years

x=2+6=8\ years

therefore

Kevin's age is 8 years

To sovle this we must combine the numbers togther and the variables togther.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

D) 0.1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(J) = Probability of John to purchase 0 books

Let P(B) = Probability of Beth to purchase 0 books

P(J∩B) = Probability that both john and Beth will purchase 0 books .ie. a total of 0 books is purchased.

Since the decisions to purchase books are two independents events,

P(J∩B) = P(J) * P(B)

P(J) = 0.5

P(B) = 0.25

P(J∩B) = 0.5 * 0.25

P(J∩B) = 0.125
