Answer: A. 21,120
Step-by-step explanation: Good luck! :D
Answer:
Here, K represents the current age of Katie and T represents the current age of Thomas.
(a)
As per the statement:
Katie is currently twice the age of Thomas.
⇒
......[1]
It is also given that in 6 years Katie will be 4 times Thomas's current age.
Subtract 6 from both sides we get;
......[2]
A system of equations that describe the situation is:
(b)
To find the solution:
equate [1] and [2] we have;
Subtract 2T from both sides we have;
Add 6 to both sides we get;
Divide both sides by 2 we have;
T = 3 years
Substitute this in equation [1] we get;
K = 2(3) = 6 years.
Therefore, the current age of Katie and Thomas are 6 years and 3 years.
Answer:
Explanation:
AB = BC
=> Triangle ABC is an Isosceles Triangle
Thus, Angle C = Angle A
DE = BE
=> Triangle DEB is an Isosceles Triangle
Thus, Angle D = Angle B
Proof that triangle ABC and DEB are similar:
Angle DBE = Angle A (corresponding angle)
Angle BDE = Angle C (Both Triangle are Isosceles, if one pair of the angle are equal then the other pair should also be equal)
=> Triangle ABC ~ Triangle DEB (AA)
Therefore, Angle E = Angle B
Find angle B:
Angle C + Angle A + Angle B = 180
40 + 40 + angle B = 180
Angle B = 180 - 80
Angle B = 100 degree
But Angle B = Angle E = 100 degree
Therefore, Angle E = 100 degree
Answer:
An equation for each situation, in terms of x
A = 35 + 3x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent the amount Company A would charge if Piper drives x miles
Let B represent the amount Company B would charge if Piper drives x miles.
Company A charges an initial fee of $35 for the rental plus $3 per mile driven.
A= $35 + $3 × x
A = 35 + 3x
Company B charges an initial fee of $80 for the rental plus $2 per mile driven.
B = $80 + $2 × x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B.
= A < B
35 + 3x < 80 + 2x
3x - 2x < 80 - 35
x < 45 miles
That is: any number of miles driven below 45 miles makes Company A cheaper than Company B
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.
