Peter's present age is 6 years and John's present age is 17 years.

let

Peter's age = x

John is 11 years older than Peter. Therefore,

  • John's age = x + 11

In 5years time, John will be twice as old as peter. Therefore,

  • 2(x + 5) = x + 11 + 5
<h3 /><h3>Present age equation:</h3>

2(x + 5) = x + 16

2x + 10 = x + 16

2x - x = 16 - 10

x = 6

Therefore, Peter's present age is 6 years and John's present age is 17 years.

Answer:

<h2>peters age is 6, john is 17</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

let peter age be x,

so johns age will be x + 11

in 5 years time,

peter will be x+5

john will be 2(x+5)

using simultaneous method,

2(x+5) = x+11+5

2x +10 = x + 16

x = 6

so peter now will be x = 6

john = x + 11 = 6 + 11 = 17

peters age is 6

john is 17

(2x-6) times (3x^2-4x-5)
Nikolay [14]

For this case we must multiply the following expression:

(2x-6) (3x ^ 2-4x-5)

Applying distributive property we have:

(2x) (3x ^ 2) - (2x) (4x) - (2x) (5) - (6) (3x ^ 2) + (6) (4x) + (6) (5) =

By definition of multiplication of powers of the same base, we have to put the same base and add the exponents:

6x ^ 3-8x ^ 2-10x-18x ^ 2 + 24x + 30 =

Adding similar terms:

6x ^ 3-26x ^ 2 + 14x + 30

Answer:

6x ^ 3-26x ^ 2 + 14x + 30

Multiply. Express your answer in lowest terms. 3/8 x 2/7 = ?/?
Murljashka [212]
Simple, multiply.

3/8*2/7

You can cross cancel the 2 and the 8, making them into a 1 and 4.

Making it,

3/4*1/7

Multiply,

3/28. This can't be simplified further; thus, 3/28 is your answer.

F(x) = 2x, find the ordered pair when x = 1. O (1,2) 0 (4,1) (2,1) O (1,4)​
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The ordered pair is (1, 2) ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

In the function f(x) = y

  • x is the domain of the function
  • y is the range of the function
  • The domain is all the x-coordinates of the points lie on the graph of the function
  • The range is all the y-coordinates of the points lie on the graph of the function

That means any ordered pair (x, y) satisfy the function f(x) = y, lies on the graph of the function

∵ f(x) = 2x

→ That means y = 2x

∵ x = 1

→ Substitute the value of x in the function above

∴ f(1) = 2(1)

∴ f(1) = 2

→ That means at x = 1, y = 2

∴ The ordered pair is (1, 2)
