<h3>Answer :- </h3>

  • 24 years

<h3>Solution :- </h3>

  • Let the age of victor be X .
  • and, the age of Mr.Smith be = 81 + x

♧ <em>So, after 3 years = x+81 +3</em>

  • 81 + 3 + x = 4 ( x + 3 )
  • 84 + x = 4x + 12

♧ <em>now grouping the variables and constants together we get,</em>

  • 4x-x=84-12
  • 3x = 72
  • x = 72/3
  • x = 24

♧ <em>Thus, Victor's present age is 24 yrs.</em>

Answer:

<u>Victor's age = 24 years old</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of Mr. Smith = x and age of Victor = y.

According to the question, we can find two equations.

=> 1) x = y + 81

=> 2) x + 3 = 4(y + 3)

Substituting value of x in (1) to (2)

y + 81 + 3 = 4y + 12

3y = 72

y = 24

<u>Victor's age = 24 years old</u>

Let 3.27&lt;&lt;5.89 represent an interval on the number line. Find the value that is in the middle of the interval.
laila [671]

Answer:

The middle value of the interval is 4.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided interval.

We need to find the value that is in the middle of the interval.

We can find the middle value of the interval by adding the upper and lower limit and divide the sum of the upper and lower limits by 2.

Here the upper limit is 3.27 and lower limit is 5.89.

\frac{3.27+5.89}{2}=\frac{9.16}{2}=4.58

Hence, the middle value of the interval is 4.58

The U.S.A. Olympic Synchronized Swimming Team is designing a routine for their upcoming competition. From the center of the pool
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The equation of the circle is;

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 5²  

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that the general equation of a circle is given as follows;

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where;

(h, k) = The coordinates of the center of the circle

r = The radius of the circle

The given parameters are;

The location of the center of the pool to the center of their formation = 2 feet to the right and 4 feet up from the center of the pool

The point through which the circle which they form goes through = A point 3 feet to the left and 4 feet up from the center of their formation

Taking the center of the pool as the origin of the coordinate plane system, we have;

The coordinate of the center of the circle = The coordinate of their motion from the center of the circle

∴ The coordinate of the center of the circle = (2, 4)

∴ (h, k) = (2, 4)

h = 2, k = 4

The coordinate of the point through which the circle passes = (2 - 3, 4 + 4) = (-1, 8)

∴ The length of the radius, 'r', can be found as, r = √((-3)² + 4²) = 5 or r = √((-1 - 2)² + (8 - 4)²) = 5

r = 5

The equation of the circle is therefore presented by substituting the values of 'h', 'k', and 'r', as follows;

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 5².
