A father's age is thrice the sum of the ages of his two children. After five years, his age will be
twice the sum of their ages. How old is the father?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 45 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Father's age is thrice the sum of ages of his two children

- After five years, his age will be twice the sum of their ages

Let x be the two children's current age and 3x be the father's current age

Solve:

Set equation

3x + 5 = 2 ( x + 10 )

Expand parenthesis

3x + 5 = 2x + 20

Subtract 5 on both sides

3x + 5 - 5 = 2x + 20 - 5

3x = 2x + 15

Subtract 2x on both sides

3x - 2x = 15

x = 15

15 × 3 = 45 years old

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

All three sides are equal

2x-7 = x+y-9 = y+5

Using the last two

x+y-9 = y+5

Subtract y from each side

x+y-9-y = y+5-y

x-9 = 5

Add 9 to each side

x -9+9 = 5+9

x=14

We know the side length is

Answer:

x=[tex]3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to find the value of x in this expression:

8x-2-5x=8

Our goal is to isolate x on one side

Combine like terms on the left side (add the terms with x together)

3x-2=8

Add 2 to both sides (-2+2=0)

3x-2=8

   +2  +2

__________

3x=10

Divide both sides by 3

x=[tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]

Simplify the improper fraction

x=[tex]3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Players A and B play a basketball game in which they take turns shooting the ball, and the first player to make their shot wins. Player A has probability 2/3 of making each of her shots. Player B has probability 1/2 of making each of his shots. If Player A shoots first, what is the probability that she will win

Answers

Answer:

Player A has a probability 2/3 of making each of her shots, then she has a probability 1/3 of missing each shot.

Player B has a probability 1/2 of making each of his shots, then he also has a probability 1/2 of missing each shot.

Let's separate each case.

Let's define:

P(x) = probability of winning at the "x" shot.

Player A wins on the first shot.

Because she has a probability 2/3 of making each of her shots, the probability of winning at the first shot is

P(1) = 2/3

Now let's see the next case, player A wins at her second shot.

This means that first, she misses her first shot, with a probability of:

p₁ = 1/3

Player B must miss his shot, the probability is:

p₂ = 1/2

Now player A must make her shot, so the probability is:

p₃ = 2/3

The joint probability is the product of the individual probabilities, so we have:

P(2) = (1/3)*(1/2)*(2/3) = 1/9

Now we can see the pattern, for P(3) we have

A misses: p₁ = 1/3    (first shot of A)

B misses: p₂ = 1/2

A misses: p₃ = 1/3   (Second shot of A)

B misses: p₄ = 1/2

A makes the shot: p₅ = 2/3

P(3) =  (1/3)*(1/2)*(1/3)*(1/2)*(2/3) = 1/54

We already can see the pattern.

P(n) = (1/3)^(n - 1)*(1/2)*(n - 1)*(2/3)

Player A has a probability P of winning, and we can write P as:

P = P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + ...

Then we will have:

P = 2/3 + 1/9 + 1/54 + 1/324 + ... ≈ 0.8

In a model, a submarine is located at point (0, 0) on the coordinate plane. The submarine’s radar range has an equation of 2x2 + 2y2 = 128

Draw the figure on a graph and label the location of the submarine. Make sure your name is on the paper, and label this activity Part 2.
Can the submarine’s radar detect a ship located at the point (6, 6) ? Mark that location on your graph, and explain how you know whether or not the ship will be detected in the space provided on the Circles Portfolio Worksheet.

Answers

Answer:

Remember that for a circle centered in the point (a, b) and with a radius R, the equation is:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = R^2

Here we know that the submarine is located at the point (0, 0)

And the radar range has the equation:

2*x^2 + 2*y^2 = 128

You can see that this seems like a circle equation.

If we divide both sides by 2, we get:

x^2 + y^2 = 128/2

x^2 + y^2 = 64 = 8^2

This is the equation for a circle centered in the point (0, 0) (which is the position of the submarine) of radius R = 8 units.

The graph can be seen below, this is just a circle of radius 8.

We also want to see if the submarine's radar can detect a ship located in the point (6, 6)

In the graph, this point is graphed, and you can see that it is outside the circle.

This means that it is outside the range of the radar, thus the radar can not detect the ship.

Answer:

the first one is 3.7 x 10^-4

and the second one is 3.7 x 10^4

explanation:

when we have decimals we are going backward,

therefore "0.00037" would be a negative number

to find the scientific notation form, we have to move the decimal over to the left untill we get 3.7

it took 4 moves to the right to get to 3.7, and since were dealing with decimals it will be negative,

so the first one is 3.7 x 10^4

the second one however is not a decimal so it will be a positive exponent.

now remember that there is always a decimal after a number we might just not see it.

so, going from the very end of the number it takes us 4 moves to the left to get to 3.7

so,

the second one will be 3.7 x 10^4

There is 3m wide path around a circular cricket ground having the diameter of 137 m. Find the area of the path.​

Answers

Answer:

1320 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

area of ground = π r ^2

= (22/7) × (137/2)^2

= 14,747.0714286 m^2

area of ground and path

=( 22/7)(143/2)^2

= 16,067.0714286 m^2

area of path

=16,067.0714286 -14,747.0714286

= 1320 m^2

note :

r = radius = diameter /2

area of a circle = π r^2

diameter of circle created with path and ground = 137 + 2 × width of path
