The first 5 is in the 10s place. The second is in the ones. To write this out, it would be 5 tens (50), plus 5 ones (5); 55. I don't know if this is what you were looking for, but I hope I could help in some way!
2x+3(x+1.5)=12 because y=y so you SUBSTITUTE y in for y
I think M<1 will equal 35 degrees.
Answer: according to spark notes: There can be 0, 1, or 2 solutions to a quadratic equation, depending on whether the expression inside the square root sign, (b2 - 4ac), is positive, negative, or zero. This expression has a special name: the discriminant.
In this case it is 0, not 2, which was my first and wrong answer
The ages are consecutive even numbers.
The youngest child is (x+3) years old.
Every even number is 2 more than the one before it.
So the three ages are
(x + 3), (x + 5), and (x + 7).
Their sum is x+3 + x+5 + x+7 = 3x + 15
But we're told that their sum is 42, so we can write
3x + 15 = 42 <== the equation
Subtract 15 from each side: 3x = 27
Divide each side by 3 : x = 9 <== the solution
So the three ages are 12, 14, and 16.
The oldest child is 16 years old.
