Answer: Kate = 40/3  Her father = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Kate's age in the present be K

And Kate's father's age in the present be F

3(K+5) = F+5

6(K-6) = F-6

Rearrange the first equation to get

3K+15 = F+5

3K+10 = F

Substitute that into the second question

6K-36 = 3K+10-6

3K = 40

K = 40/3

So F = 3*40/3+10 = 50

Is x-3/5 = N and N = 6, what is the value of x?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

x = 33/5

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3/5 = n.......n = 6

so we sub

x - 3/5 = 6......add 3/5 to both sides

x = 6 + 3/5...convert using common denominator of 5

x = 30/5 + 3/5

x = 33/5 <===

check...

x - 3/5 = 6

33/5 - 3/5 = 6

30/5 = 6

6 = 6 (correct)...so it checks out

John and Martha are contemplating having children, but John’s brother has galactosemia (an autosomal recessive disease) and Mart
Rina8888 [55]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Probability=\frac{1}{24}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

As the question states,

John's brother has Galactosemia which states that his parents were both the carriers.

Therefore, the chances for the John to have the disease is = 2/3

Now,

Martha's great-grandmother also had the disease that means her children definitely carried the disease means probability of 1.

Now, one of those children married with a person.

So,

Probability for the child to have disease will be = 1/2

Now, again the child's child (Martha) probability for having the disease is = 1/2.

Therefore,

<u>The total probability for Martha's first child to be diagnosed with Galactosemia will be,</u>

Probability=\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{4}\\Probability=\frac{1}{24}

(Here, we assumed that the child has the disease therefore, the probability was taken to be = 1/4.)

<em><u>Hence, the probability for the first child to have Galactosemia is \frac{1}{24}</u></em>

Which graph represents the function of f(x) 9x^2 -36 / 3x + 6
Finger [1]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=\frac{9x^{2}-36}{3x+6}

Remember that the denominator cannot be equal to zero

so

The value of x cannot be equal to x=-2

<em>Simplify the numerator</em>

9x^{2}-36=(3x+6)(3x-6) ----> by difference of squares

substitute

f(x)=\frac{(3x+6)(3x-6)}{3x+6}

simplify

f(x)=3x-6

The domain is all real numbers except the value of x=-2

The y-intercept is the point (0,-6) ---> value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

The x-intercept is the point (2,0) ---> value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)

therefore

The graph in the attached figure
