It's a little hard to tell what is supposed to go in the middle column. The column on the right can be filled directly from the problem description: at 2 calendar years, the equivalent is 24 human years, and the number of human years increases by 4 for each increase of 1 calendar year.
The multiplier in the expression is obviously 4, as we are told the number of human years is 4 times the difference from 2 calendar years. (each year after 2 ...)
Answer:
y = 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles are the same.
The small and large triangles are similar ( - that is corresponding angles are congruent).
So 2/(2+8) = x / 20
2/10 = x/20
10x = 40
x = 4.
Therefore y = 20 -4 = 16.
Make an inequality representing both constraints.
0.5x+y<20
x+y≥24
