Let William be x years old.

Thomas = (4 + x) years

In five years,

William = (x + 5) years

Thomas = 4 + x + 5 = (9 + x) years

Given, in five years sum of their ages is 24.

x + 5 + 9 + x = 24

2x + 14 = 24

2x = 24 - 14 

2x = 10

x = \frac{10}{2}

x = 5

Hence, William is 5 years old and Thomas is 9 years old.

Remember a^(m) x a^(n) =  a(m+n) & √a = a^(1/2)


===> x^(1/2 -3/2)+x(1/2 -1/2) ====> x^(-1)+x^(0) (any number Exp 0 =1)
X^(-1) +1 ===> 1/x +1 or (1+x)/x

Write the exponential equation for this scenario. Georgiana invests $3000.00 in a CD. The CD earns 10% annual interest. How much
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The exponential equation is;

F = 30,000(1.01)^30

The value is;

$40,435.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to write an exponential equation

Exponential equations generally take the form;

F = I(1 + r)^t

where F is the future value

I is the initial value

r is the growth percentage

t is the time

with respect to the question;

F = ?

I = 3,000

t = 30

r = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

Writing the equation, we have

F = 30,000(1.+ 0.1)^30

F = 30,000(1.01)^30

F = $40,435.50
