Ben is 4 times as old as Ishaan. 6 years ago, Ben was 6 times as old as Ishaan.
How old is Ishaan now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ishaan is currently 15 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B represent Ben's current age and I represent Ishann's current age.

Ben is four times as old as Ishaan. In other words:

[tex]B=4I[/tex]

Six years ago, Ben was six times as old as Ishaan. In other words:

[tex]B-6=6(I-6)[/tex]

Solve for I. Substitute:

[tex](4I)-6=6(I-6)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]4I-6=6I-36[/tex]

Subtract 4I from both sides and add 36 to both sides:

[tex]2I=30[/tex]

And divide both sides by two. Hence:

[tex]I=15[/tex]

Ishaan is currently 15 years old.

Answer 2

Answer:

Age of Ishaan = 15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ishaan's age = x years

Age of Ben = 4 * x = 4x years

6Years ago:

Age of Ishaan = x - 6

Age of Ben = 4x - 6

6 years ago, Ben was 6 times as old as Ishaan

So, Age of Ben = 6 * Ishaan's age

     4x - 6 = 6 *(x-6)

4x - 6 = 6x - 36

Add 36 to both sides

4x - 6 + 36  = 6x  

4x + 30 = 6x

Subtract '4x' from both sides

30 = 6x - 4x  

30 = 2x

2x = 30

Divide both by 2 sides

x = 30/2

x = 15

Hi Hi aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

what is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-8,8) and (4,-1)​

Answers

Answer:

y = (-3/4)x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of this line.  Note how the first x-coordinate (-8) becomes 4, a jump of 12, and how the first y-coordinate (8) becomes -1, a decrease of 9.  Then the slope is

m = (change in y) / (change in x) = -9/12 = m = -3/4

Find the y-intercept from this data using the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b becomes  8 = (-3/4)(-8) + b when x = -8, y = 8 and m = -3/4.

Solving this equation for b, we get:

                                     8 = 6 + b, so that b must be 2.

The desired equation is y = (-3/4)x + 2.

Answers

Answer:

its c 120in

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the triangle is,

⇒ 138 in.

What is mean by Triangle?

A triangle is a three sided polygon, which has three vertices and three angles which has the sum 180 degrees.

Given that;

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 52 in.

And, One leg of the triangle is 8 in. more than twice the length of the other.

Hence, We get;

Lengths of legs are,

⇒ x

And, ⇒ 8 + 2x

Hence, We can formulate;

⇒ 52² = x² + (2x + 8)²

⇒ 2704 = x² + 4x² + 64 + 24x

⇒ 5x² + 24x - 2640 = 0

⇒ x = 20 and x = - 132/5

For perimeter;

Take x = 20

Hence, The perimeter of the triangle is,

⇒ 52 + x + (2x + 8)

⇒ 52 + 20 + (2 × 20 + 8)

⇒ 52 + 20 + 48

⇒ 138 in.

Thus, The perimeter of the triangle is,

⇒ 138 in.

Determine the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 3x-4y-12=0 that passes through the point (-4,-1). Write the equation in slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y=(3/4)x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

write the equation in slope-intercept form: y=(3/4)x - 3

since it is parallel the slope is the same so we have y=(3/4)x + b

then plug in the point (-1) = (3/4)(-4) + b

-1 = -3 +b, b=2

create a line that is perpendicular to AB and passes through C. you can use the tools available in geogebra to create perpendicular lines for this construction display the measurement of the angle of intersection between the two lines???

Answers

A linear relationship can be written as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we know that the line passes through two points, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then we can write the slope as:

a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

Also, for a given line:

y = m*x + s

A perpendicular line to that one must have a slope:

a = -(1/m)

And the intersection between two perpendicular lines forms four 90° angles.

So first, we need to find the slope of the line that passes through A and B.

A = (-3, 3)

B = (-1, -1)

Then the slope of the line is:

a = (-1 - 3)/(-1 - (-3)) = -4/2 = -2

a = -2

The slope of a perpendicular line should be:

slope = -(1/a) = -(1/-2) = 1/2

Then the perpendicular line will be something like:

y = (1/2)*x + b

To find the value of b, we can use the other restriction.

This line needs to pass through point C.

And we can see that point C is:

C = (1, 2)

This means that when x is equal to 1, y must be equal to 2.

Then replacing these in the above equation we get:

2 = (1/2)*1 + b

2 = 1/2 + b

2 - 1/2 = 4/2 - 1/2 = 3/2 = b

Then our equation is:

y = (1/2)*x+ 3/2

The graph of this line can be seen in the image below, the green line is the line that we found.
