Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN: A space telescope on a mountaintop is housed inside of a cylindrical building with a hemispheric dome. If the circumference of the dome is
, and the total height of the building up to the top of the dome is
.
TO FIND: what is the approximate total volume of the building.
SOLUTION:
let the height of the mountaintop be 
As the dome hemispherical.
circumference of a hemisphere 



total height of the building up to the top of the dome 


Volume of building 

as radius of mountain top is same as dome
putting values


Hence the total volume of the building is
Answer:
0.375

Answer:
:)
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for the square root of twelve.
If you multiply the 2 and 6, you get twelve.
Simplofy the fraction, you get one half.
If something is to the power of one half, we need the square of it. Yet 12 does not have a square root so you decide your format of answer, under a radical, or to the power of one half.
