Answer:20 years

Step-by-step explanation: Let your present age be 'x'

If you are 5percent holder then your age is 21

x +5/100×x =21

x+5x/100=21

100x+5x/100=21

105x/100=21

x=21×100÷105

x=20

x＋1/20x＝21
21/20x＝21

a f(a) is the function f(x) where x is replaced by a.

So we have

(3x^2 + x + 3 - (3a^2 + a + 3)) / ( x - a)

= (3x^2 - 3a^2 + x - a) / (x = a) Answer

b (3(x + h)^2 + x + h + 3 - (3x^2 + x + 3)) / h

= (3x^2 + 6xh + 3h^2 + x + h - 3x^2 - x - 3) ) / h

= (6xh + h + 3 h^2) / h

= 6x + 3h + 1 Answer

A worker carries jugs of liquid soap from a production line to a packing area, carrying 4 jugs per trip. If the jugs are packed

Allisa [31]

Answer:

B. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a worker carries jugs of liquid soap from a production line to a packing area, carrying 4 jugs per trip.

Since worker has made 17 trips, so total number of hugs of liquid soap would be 17 times number of jugs carried per trip.

$17\times 4=68$ .

Since each carton holds 7 jugs, so number of cartoons would be $\frac{68}{7}$ .

$\frac{68}{7}\Rightarrow \frac{63+5}{7}=9\frac{5}{7}$

We can see that there are 9 completely filled cartoons and there are 5 jugs remaining, so we need $7-5=2$ jugs.

Therefore, we need 2 jugs to fill the 10th cartoon and option B is the correct choice.
