Answer:
C. 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
B's age = x years
A's age = 2 times older than B
= 2 * x
= 2x years
A's age = 2x years
For instance, if B's age is 17 years
Then,
A's age = 2x
= 2(17)
= 34 years old
Answer:
c. 50
Step-by-step explanation:
count each full block and every block that is more than half full as 1 each, ignore every block that is less than half full.
I got exactly 50 using this method before looking at the available answers.
In multiple choice math problems try to ignore the possible answers until you have determined what you think it ought to be. If the answer you found is in the list you have more confidence you are right, if the answer you got is not in the list you know you did something wrong... just a hint :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If human can eat 5% more than animal then the animal eats 5 % less than human so the answer is 5% less than human
Answer: 7.5
Form your proportion. Let x be the width of QRST.
Length of ABCD Length of QRST
----------------------- = -------------------------
Width of ABCD Width of QRST
8/5 = 12/x
Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
(8)(x) = (12)(5)
8x = 60
x = 7.5
Answer: choice A) 7017
==========================================================
Work Shown:
The first term is a_1 = 24 and we go up by 7 each time.
The common difference is d = 7
The nth term formula we'll use is
a_n = a_1 + (n-1)*d
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
----------
The 1000th term corresponds to n = 1000
Replace every n with 1000
Then use the order of operations (PEMDAS) to simplify
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (1000-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (999)*7
a_1000 = 24 + 6993
a_1000 = 7017
