Answer:

Andy : 13 years old and

Jamie: 36 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy = x

Jamie = 3x - 3

In 5 years:

(X+5)+(3x-3+5) = 59

4x + 7 = 59

4x = 59 - 7

x = 52/4

x = 13

If the points at (-4, 3) and (2, 3) are reflected over the x-axis to create two new points, what shape can be formed by the four
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (a,b)\in \mathbb{R}^{2}, a reflection over the x-axis consists in the following operation:

(a,b) \rightarrow (a,-b)

If we know that X = (-4,3) and Y = (2, 3), then the points translated over the x-axis are X' = (-4, -3) and Y' = (2,-3), respectively. The most precise description of the shape is a rectangle for the following facts:

1) XX' = YY' = 8 and XY = X'Y' = 6.

2) X and X' have the same x-component.

3) Y and Y' have the same x-component.

4) X and Y have the same y-component.

5) X' and Y' have the same y-component.

A representation of the shape is included below as attachment.

Ten times an integer is added to seven times it’s square. If the result is 152, what was the original number?
Bess [88]

Answer:

Required number is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required number be a.

Given,

Sum of ten times the integer and seven times it’s square is 152.

= > Ten times of a + seven times of it's square = 152

= > 10( a ) + 7( a )^2 = 152

= > 10a + 7a^2 - 152 = 0

= > 7a^2 + 10a - 152 = 0

= > 7a^2 + ( 38 - 28 )a - 152 = 0

= > 7a^2 + 38a - 28a - 152 = 0

= > a( 7a + 38 ) - 4( 7a + 38 ) = 0

= > ( a - 4 )( 7a + 38 ) = 0

= > a = 4 or - 38 / 7

Hence the required number is 4.
