Answer:

The mother is 30 and the daughter is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving for this, you can derive the equations

x=5y and x+6= 3(y+6)

x= mother and y= Daughter

Solve the equations by substituting the first equation into the places of x in the second equation to get the value of x. Next, pug in the value of x and solve for y.

How can I calculate if a given decimal is rational or irrational. please help I forgot.
dalvyx [7]
Well, a rational decimal is like a simple 3.1 or 4.5. It just cuts off easily. Another example would be a repeating decimal like 3.333333...


An irrational decimal is like 3.1415682983523576294875 with no pattern or cutoff point.


Sorry if I am wrong.

Tom sees an enormous thundercloud approaching
ikadub [295]

Using the slope concept, it is found that the thundercloud is 6.43 miles above the ground.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

The slope is given by the <u>vertical change divided by the horizontal change</u>, and it's also the tangent of the angle of depression.

In this problem, we have that:

  • The angle is of 65º.
  • The vertical distance is the height h.
  • The horizontal distance is of 3 miles, as the sound takes 5 seconds to travel 1 mile, and it took 15 seconds.

Hence:

tan(65º) = h/3.

h = 3 x tan(65º)

h = 6.43 miles.

The thundercloud is 6.43 miles above the ground.
