Answer:

36 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom's age : Nephew's age = 3 : 1

Tom's age = 3x

His nephew's age = x

Difference of age = 24 years

3x - x = 24

2x = 24

Divide both sides by 2

x = 24/2

x = 12

Tom's age = 3*12 = 36

Answer:

B. x ≥ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 6x from both sides

4x + 16 ≥ 20

Step 2: Subtract 16 from both sides

4x ≥ 4

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4

x ≥ 1

What is the solution set of 2x2-3x=5
Kryger [21]

You use the quadratic formula:

2x {}^{2} - 3x = 5

2x {}^{2} - 3x - 5 = 0

x = \frac{3 + - \sqrt{9 -4(2)( - 5)}}{2 \times 2}  

x = \frac{3 + - \sqrt{49} }{4}  

x = \frac{3 + 7}{4} \: and \: x = \frac{3 - 7}{4}  

x = \frac{5}{2} \: and \: x = - 1

Alex17521 [72]

Answer: 1 1/4feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the depth of the water in the pool changes by −3/4 foot every hour and that the depth of the water was 5 feet when she started draining.

The depth of the water after 5 hours will be:

= 5 - 3/4(5)

= 5 - 15/4

= 5 - 3 3/4

= 1 1/4 feet
