Robert's father is 4 times as old as robert. After 5 years, father will be three times as old as robert.What is their present ag
andreev551 [17]

Answer: Robert's present age is 10 years

Robert father's present age is 40 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r = Robert's current age

Let y = Robert father's current age

Robert's father is 4 times as old as robert. This means that

y = 4x

After 5 years, Robert's father will be three times as old as Robert. This means that

y + 5 = 3(x+5)

y + 5 = 3x + 15 - - - - - - - ;1

We will substitute y = 4x into equation 1. It becomes

4x + 5 = 3x + 15

Collecting like terms,

4x - 3x = 15 - 5

x = 10

y = 4x

Substituting x = 10,

y = 4× 10 = 40 years

GEOMETRY)

Answer:

(x - 2)² + (y + 7)² = 64

(fourth option listed / option D)

Step-by-step explanation:

as you likely know, the equation of a circle (centered at origin) is x²+y²=r²

now, let's say we want to write this using the center (the origin), it could look like this:

(x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = r²

(the center is 0,0)

[we write this in parentheses when we are shifting the location of a point--similar to when we move a line on a graph]

We can use this for any center, and we write our circle equation as:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(h, k) is the center

So, let's apply the information we know

our (h, k) is (2, -7)

so let's fill that in:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(x - 2)² + (y - -7)² = r²          (simplify)

(x - 2)² + (y + 7)² = r²

now, we also know that our "r" <em>(r is the radius)</em> is 8, so let's fill that in too:

(x - 2)² + (y + 7)² = r²

(x - 2)² + (y + 7)² = 8²   (simplify)

(x - 2)² + (y + 7)² = 64

So, we have found the equation of our circle to be:

(x - 2)² + (y + 7)² = 64

hope this helps! (and hope this makes sense) have a lovely day :)

67.498 to the nearest whole number
insens350 [35]

Answer:

67

Step-by-step explanation:

To round 67.498 to the nearest whole number consider the tenths’ value of 67.498, which is 4 and less than 5. Therefore, we have to round down: the whole number ones place value of 67.498, 67, remains 67, and the decimal point and all digits (.498) are removed.

67.498 rounded to the nearest whole number = 67

The length of a rectangle is 5 inches more than 3 times the width. If the area of the rectangle is 68 square inches, what is the
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Width=4, and Length=17

Step-by-step explanation:

first you will make a variable for the width which i will say is x

now make it an equation (3x+5) (x) = 68

then solve 3x^2+5x=68

then 3x^2+5x-68=0

then x=4

then you have to substitute so 3(4)+5= 17 and 4
