The total age of the three children are = 37years

<h3>Calculation of the total age of children</h3>

The product of the ages of three children is = 1872.

Let take child 1 = x

child 2 = x

child. 3 = x

Therefore, the age of three children = x³= 1872

Therefore;

x =  \sqrt[3]{1872}

X = 12.32448

The age of the middle child = 12.32448 + 12.32448

= 24.64896/2

= 12.32448

Therefore the sum of their ages = 12.32448 + 12.32448 + 12.32448 = 37years.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 36m. If its length is increased by 1m and the width is increased by 2m, its area will increase b
maw [93]

Answer:

  80 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information lets you write two equations involving length (x) and width (y).

  • 2(x +y) = 36 . . . . the perimeter is 36 m
  • (x+1)(y+2) -xy = 30 . . . . increasing the length and width increases area

The second of these equations simplifies to another linear equation, giving a system of linear equations easily solved.

  xy +y +2x + 2 -xy = 30

  2x +y = 28 . . . . . . . subtract 2

Dividing the first equation by 2 gives

  x +y = 18

and subtracting this from the above equation gives ...

  (2x +y) -(x +y) = 28 -18

  x = 10

Then

  y = 18 -10 = 8

The area of the original rectangle is xy = 10·8 = 80 m^2.
