4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of samantha be 3x and age of jason be x.(since samantha is three times as old as jason)

Now,

3x+x=56 (sum of their ages is 56)

or 4x=56

or x=56/4

or x=14

therefore age of samantha=3x=3×14=42

age of jason = x = 14

Write an equation for a line parallel to y=3x-3 and passing through the point (4,15)
Andrews [41]

Hello!

To find the equation of a line parallel to y = 3x - 3 and passing through the point (4, 15), we need to know that if two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equivalent.

This means that we create a new equation in slope-intercept form, which includes the original slope, which is equal to 3.

In slope-intercept form, we need a y-intercept. So, we would substitute the given ordered pair into the new equation with the same slope and solve.

Remember that slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y = 3x + b (substitute the ordered pair (4, 15))

15 = 3(4) + b (simplify)

15 = 12 + b (subtract 12 from both sides)

3 = b

Therefore, the equation for the line parallel to the line y = 3x - 3, and passing through the point (4, 15) is y = 3x + 3.

The deminsions of a rectangler prism are 5cm, 6cm, and Xcm. Its surface area is 148 cm2. Find the other deminsion.​
Zina [86]

Answer:

<em>The other dimension is x=4 cm</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Surface Area of a Rectangular Prism</u>

Given a rectangular prism of dimension x, y, and z. Its surface area is calculated with the formula:

A = 2(xy + yz + xz)

We are given the dimensions y=5 cm and z=6 cm. We also have A=148 cm2. Substituting:

148 = 2(x*5 + 5*6 + x*6)

Dividing by 2:

74 = x*5 + 5*6 + x*6

Operating:

74 = 5x + 30 + 6x

Simplifying:

74 = 11x + 30

Subtracting 30:

44 = 11x

Dividing by 11:

x = 4 cm

The other dimension is x=4 cm
