Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

       Let <em>g </em>be Gabrielle's age and <em>m </em>be Mikhail's age.

       We can turn the statements the problem gives us into mathematical expressions to help us solve.

       Gabrielle's age is two times Mikhail's age:

                      <em>g </em>= 2<em>m</em>

       The sum of their ages is 81:

                      <em>g </em>+ <em>m </em>= 81

       This gives us a system of equations that will allow us to solve for Gabrielle's age.

<em>g </em>+ <em>m </em>= 81

(2<em>m</em>)<em> </em>+ <em>m </em>= 81

3<em>m </em>= 81

<em>m</em> = \frac{81}{3}

<em>m </em>= 27

       If we need to solve for Gabrielle's age, we can do the following.

<em>g </em>= 2<em>m</em>

2(27)<em> </em>= <em>g</em>

54 = <em>g</em>

g = 54

Mikhail's age is 27.

Gabrielle's age is 54.

Answer:

Mikhail is 27

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Use 'm' to represent Mikhail's age
  • Use g = 2m to represent Gabrielle's age (because Gabrielle's age is twice that of Mikhail's.
  • You know that both of their ages combined must equal 81. This can be represented by g + m = 81
  • Lastly, since we stated g=2m, substitute it into the equation to make: 2m + m = 81
  • Combine like variables and divide to get Mikhail's age.

**If you want to find Gabrielle's age, multiply Mikhail's age by two, as represented by the equation g=2m. Gabrielle is 57.

Hope this helps!

The actual proportion of voters who plan to vote for a particular proposition in the next election is 70%, but LaShandra does no
Setler [38]

Answer:

0.0417

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following;

p = 0.7, n=121

The sampling distribution of sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean

\mu_{\hat{p}}=p=0.7

and standard deviation

\sigma_{\hat{p}}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.7\cdot 0.2}{121}}=0.0417

Which compound inequalities have the solution set represented by the given graph? Check all that apply
Contact [7]

We check with each options

'Or' represents the intersection of two graphs

'And' represents two separate graphs'

We have two separate shaded part in the given graph

So we ignore the options that has 'and' in between

LEts check first  and second option

\frac{x}{2}=13

Simplify the first part and second part

multiply both sides by 2 .

x < 2  or  4x - 2 > = 26

solve 4x-2 > = 26

add 2 on both sides and then divide both sides by 4

4x >= 28

x >= 7

So solution is x<2 or x>=7 . that is the graph on number line

Lets check with second option

3x-3<3  or  2x+8>=22

add 3 on both sides

3x < 6

divide both sides by 3

so x< 2

2x+8>=22

subtract 8 on both sides

2x >= 30

divide both sides by 2

x >= 15

x<2  or x>=15 that does not satisfies the graph

So option A is correct

What value of x makes this equation true? 6x/-4=6(-1/2)<br> a) -2<br> b)2<br> c)3<br> d)-3
Yuri [45]
6x/-4 = 6(-1/2)
6x/-4 = - 3...multiply by -4
6x = -3 * -4
6x = 12
x = 2
