The mum's age now = N
The daughter's age now = n
N=3n
N-6=6(n-6)
3n-6=6n-36
3n=30
n=10
The daughter's age now = 10
The mum's age now = 30

Question 3, help please!

White raven [17]

The answer is not defined.

Explanation:

The given matrix is $\left[\begin{array}{cc}{2} & {4} \\ {1} & {-6}\end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{c}{1} \\ {0}\end{array}\right]$

The matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cc}{2} & {4} \\ {1} & {-6}\end{array}\right]$ has dimensions $2\times 2$

This means that the matrix has 2 rows and 2 columns.

Also, the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{l}{1} \\ {0}\end{array}\right]$ has dimensions $2\times1$

This means that the matrix has 2 rows and 1 column.

Since, the matrices can be added only if they have the same dimensions.

In other words, to add the matrices, the two matrices must have the same number of rows and same number of columns.

Since, the dimensions of the two matrices are not equal, the addition of these two matrices is not possible.

Hence, the addition of these two matrices is not defined.

What is the dimensions of a box 8 cubic feet

Nesterboy [21]

You can't tell. The volume doesn't tell you the dimensions. It only tells you
what the product of the three dimensions is, but not what anyone of them is.
There are an infinite number of different possibilities.

Example: Volume = 8 cubic feet

The dimensions of the box could be

Length = 2-ft, Width = 2-ft, Height = 2-ft
or
1 x 1 x 8
or
1 x 2 x 4
or
1 x 3 x 2-2/3
or
1 x 5 x 1.6
or
1 x 6 x 1-1/3
or
1 x 7 x 1-1/7
or
2 x 3 x 1-1/3
or
2 x 5 x 0.8
or
2 x 6 x 2/3
or
2 x 7 x 4/7
or
2 x 8 x 1/2
.
.
etc.

Calculate the side lengths a and b to two decimal places. Will give five stars and brainliest to the first answer!!!!! Need help

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Using the Sine Rule , which states that

$\frac{a}{Sin A}=\frac{b}{Sin B}=\frac{c}{SinC}$

In Δ ABC

∠A +∠B+∠C=180°→→Angle Sum Property of Triangle

72°+85°+∠C=180°

∠C=180° - 157°

∠C= 23°

All the angles are in degrees.

$\frac{a}{Sin 72}=\frac{b}{Sin 85}=\frac{6.2}{Sin 23}$

Using the table of Sine, Calculating Sine Values

Sin 72°= 0.9510

Sin 85°=0.996

Sin 23°=0.390

$\frac{a}{0.951}=\frac{b}{0.996}=\frac{6.2}{0.390}\\\\ a=\frac{6.2 * 0.951}{0.390}= 15.118\\\\ b=\frac{6.2 * 0.996}{0.390}=15.833$

Among the five Options,

Option E: a= 15.09 and b=15.81 is approximately true.
