a father is twice as old as his son. 20 yrs ago the father was four times as old as his son. find their present ages

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

son's present age = 30

father's present age=60

Step-by-step explanation:

his son's present age = x years

his father's present age = 2x years

before 20 years his son's age=(x-20) years

before 20 years father's age=(2x-20) years4(x-20)=(2x-20)

4x-80=2x-20

4x-2x=80-20

2x=60

x=30

Can someone explain (with steps) how to rationalize the following expression?

insens350 [35]

F(x)=(-2/((x+y-2)^(1/2))-(x+y+2)^(1/2)
the only irrational part of this expression is the (x+y-2)^(1/2) in the denominator, so, to rationalize this, you multiply the numerator and denominator by the denominator, as well as the other parts of the expression
also, you must multiply the -sqrt(x+y+2) by sqrt(x+y-2)/sqrt(x+y-2) to form a common denominator
(-2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)-(x+y+2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(common denominator)
(-2-(x^2+xy+2x+xy+y^2+2y-2x-2y-4))/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(FOIL)
(-2-x^2-y^2-2xy+4)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Distribute negative)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Simplify numerator)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Rationalize denominator by multiplying both top and bottom by sqrt)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)((x+y-2)^(1/2))/(x+y-2)
(The function is now rational)
=(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(sqrt(x+y-2))/(x+y-2)

The three angles in a triangle are in the ratio 3:5:7. Find the largest angle in the triangle?

Rzqust [24]

Answer: The largest angle is 7x

Step-by-step explanation:

Their sum is 180, so

3x + 5x + 7x = 180

5x = 180 --> x = 12

The largest angle is 7x, which is 7(12) = 84

Evaluate. –1.65 + (–3.4)

elena55 [62]

Hey there!

This seems like a algebraic expression

SO,
Remember: negative and negative = positive
positive and positive = positive
positive and negative = negative
negative and positive = negative

In this problem we will be doing negative and negative so that means our answer will be a negative

Firstly, lets line up our decimals to solve this problem (once when you do that , you can solve it easier)

$-1.65 
\\ +
\\ (-3.4)
$

Answer: $-5.05$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day
