Answer:

Bill: 8 years

Hoang: 13 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Hoang has been a nurse for H years and Bill has been a nurse for B years.

Hoang has been a nurse for 5 years longer than Bill. This means that B + 5 = H

Next, 3 years ago, she had been there twice as long.

(B-3) and (H-3) represent Bill and Hoang 3 years ago respectively.

(B-3) * 2 = (H-3)

We thus have two equations

B+5 = H

(B-3) * 2 = H-3

Substitute B+5 for H in the second equation

2*B - 6 = B+5-3

2B-6 = B+2

add 6 to both sides to put all the constants on one side

2B = B + 8

subtract B from both sides to isolate the variable

B = 8

H = B+5 = 13

Answer: ( 12 , 9 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the coordinate of points when a line is externally divided in a given ratio is given by :

x = \frac{p x_{2}+q x_{1}}{p+q}

y = \frac{p y_{2}+q y_{1}}{p+q}

From the question

x_{1} = 2

x_{2} = ?

x = 4

y_{1} = -1

y_{2} = ?

y = 1

p = 1

q = 4

substituting the values into the formula ,we have

x = \frac{p x_{2}+q x_{1}}{p+q}

4 = \frac{1(x_{2})+4(2) }{1+4}

4 = \frac{x_{2}+8}{5}

x_{2} + 8 = 20

x_{2} = 12

Also

y = \frac{p y_{2}+q y_{1}}{p+q}

1 = \frac{y_{2}+4(-1)}{5}

y_{2} - 4 = 5

y_{2} = 9

Therefore , the end of the stencil is located at point ( 12 , 9 )
