Answer:
son's present age = 30
father's present age=60
Step-by-step explanation:
his son's present age = x years
his father's present age = 2x years
before 20 years his son's age=(x-20) years
before 20 years father's age=(2x-20) years4(x-20)=(2x-20)
4x-80=2x-20
4x-2x=80-20
2x=60
x=30
Answer:
3.471 + 7.2516 x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
(1,3) (2,0) (5,-8) (9, -25) .
X:
1
2
5
9
Y:
3
0
-8
-25
The line of best fit for the data given can be obtained using an online regression calculator :
The equation of best fit for the data is thus;
Best fit equation; y = -3.471 + 7.2516x
Intercept = - 3.471 ;
Slope = 7.2516
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Shanice =88
If greg won x pieces of gum, and 88 was 4 more than twice as many as Greg
2x+4=88
2x=84
x=42
Your equation: 4x² - 100 = 0
Factor the left side: (2x + 10) · (2x - 10) = 0
This equation is true if either factor is zero.
-- One factor: 2x + 10 = 0
Divide each side by 2: x + 5 = 0
Subtract 5 from each side: x = -5 .
-- The other factor: 2x - 10 = 0
Divide each side by 2: x + 5 = 0
Add 5 to each side: x = 5 .
