4 0

Answer:

400 is the number

Step-by-step explanation:

Is means equals and of means multiply

60 = 15% * W

60 = .15W

Divide by .15

60/.15 = .15W/.15

400= W

3 years from now, Ron's age will be 2 times that of Miley. Three years ago, Ron's age was 3 times that of Miley.
andrezito [222]

Answer:

M=9

EXPLANATION:

Let R represent Ronald’s present age. Let M represent Miley’s present age. Three years from now, Ronald and Miley will be R+3 and M+3 years old, respectively.

Your assertion “Three years from now, Ron’s age will be 2 times that of Miley's” can be written as

R + 3 = 2*(M + 3)

Similarly, your assertion “Three years ago, Ron's age was 3 times that of Miley's” can be written as

R - 3 = 3*(M-3)

We can add the left side of these equations together, and also the right side of these equations together, and obtain a new equation …

R + 3 + R - 3 = 2*(M + 3) + 3*(M - 3) = 2M + 6 + 3M - 9 = 5M - 3

This can be simplified to

2R = 5M - 3

We can divide both sides of the last equation by 2, and obtain ..

(2/2) * R = (5/2) * M - 3/2, or R = (5/2) * M - 3/2.

Now we can “plug in” the last equation into either of our first two equations of this post, and solve for M.

Using the first equation, we have

(5/2) * M - 3/2 + 3 = 2 *(M + 3) = 2M + 6

We now have

(5/2) * M + 3/2 = 2M + 6

The left side of this equation can be rewritten as

(5M + 3) / 2, so we obtain

(5M + 3) / 2 = 2M + 6

Multiplying both sides by 2, we have

5M + 3 = 4M + 12

Subtracting 4M and 3 from both sides, we obtain

M = 9

Miley’s present age is 9.

The coefficient of 8.2 N is<br> 8<br> 2<br> 16
Aliun [14]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

A coefficient is the number placed before the variable. The variable gets multiplied by the coefficient.

The format is not exactly clear with the expression in the question.

Assuming the expression is '8 * 2n', the coefficient would be 2.

'n' is getting multiplied by '2'.

'8' does not have a variable next to it, so it is just a term in the expression.

The product of 8 and 2 is 16. 16 is not in the expression.

If the expression was '8.2n', 8.2 would be the coefficient.
