You are  65 years old am I now

Let y represent father's age now

Let x represent daughter age now

First step

y=13x

y+1=11×(x+1)

Second step

y+1=11x+11

y-11x=d

Third step

Substitute

13x-11x=10

2x=10

x=10/2

x=5

Last step

y=13x

y=13×5

y=65

Inconclusion You are  65 years old am I now.

An investor bought 700 shares of stock, some at $2.25 per share and some at $2.75 per share. If the total cost was $1825.00, how
statuscvo [17]

The shares of $2.25 are 200 and the shares of $2.75 are 700.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

An investor bought 700 shares of stock, some at $2.25 per share and some at $2.75 per share. And the total cost was $1825.00.

Now, let's take the shares of $2.25 to be x and the shares of $2.75 to be y.

So, we have the following expression:

x+y = 700

x = 700-y ....(1)

2.25x+2.75y = 1825 ...(2)

Putting the value of x from equation 1:

2.25(700-y)+2.75y = 1825

1575-2.25y+2.75y = 1825

1575+0.5y = 1825

0.5y = 250

y = 250/0.5

y = 500

Now, putting the value of y in equation 1:

x = 700-y

x = 700-500

x = 200

Hence, the shares of $2.25 are 200 and the shares of $2.75 are 700.

Given that the line is x/3 + y/2 =1<br> i ) make y the subject<br> ii ) gradient of line
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(i)

\frac{x}{3} + \frac{y}{2} = 1 ( multiply through by 6 to clear the fractions )

2x + 3y = 6 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

3y = - 2x + 6 ( divide through by 3 )

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 2

(ii)

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope ( gradient ) and c the y- intercept )

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 2 ← is in slope- intercept form ( that is part (i)

with gradient m = - \frac{2}{3}

A teacher passes cards out to students. She has 52 cards. She gives one card to each student at a time to each student until all
Zarrin [17]
The problem presents 2 variables and 2 conditions to follow to determine the approach in solving the problem. The variables are 52 cards, and 9 cards. The 2 conditions presented would be the teacher giving out one card to each student at a time to each student until all of them are gone. The second variable is more likely made as a clue and the important variable that gives away the approach to be used. The approach to be used is division. This is to ensure that there will be students receiving the 9 cards. Thus, we do it as this: 52 / 9 = ?

The answer would be 5.77778 (wherein 7 after the decimal point is infinite and 8 would just be the rounded of number). This would ensure us that there will be 5 students that can receive 9 cards but there will be 7 cards remaining which goes to the last student, which is supposed to be 8 since she gives one card to each student at a time to each student. So the correct answer would be just 4 students. The fifth student will only receive 8 cards and the last student would have 8, too.
