Able has a younger sister and an older brother.

- Able’s age can be represented by x.
- Able’s sister is 4 years younger than him.
- Able’s older brother is twice as old as he is.
- The combined age of all three siblings is 32.

How old is Able’s younger sister?

9 years

13 years

5 years

3 years

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

1. if able's age is x, then his sister's is x-4, and his brother's is 2x

2. if these sum to 32, then we can formulate the equation x+(x-4)+2x=32

3. now solve for x, 4x-4=32, 4x=36, x=9

4. if able's sister is x-4 years old, she is 9-4, or 5 years old

There are 3 consecutive integers that have a sum of 36. What are the integers?

Answers

Answer:

            11, 12, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The consecutive integers are increasing by 1

k ← the smallest integer

k+1 ← the middle integer

k+1+1 = k+2   ← the largest integer

k + k+1 + k+2 = 36

   3k + 3 = 36

     ÷3         ÷3

    k + 1  =  12

        -1       -1  

        k  =  11

k+1 = 11 + 1 = 12

k+2 = 11 + 2 = 13

Answers

Answer:

The measure of each angle is :

3x° = 33°

(5x+2)° =57°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, angle <ABC is a right-angle triangle with a measure of 90°

This means the sum of the two angles <ABE + <CBE =90°

Given from the question :

<ABE = 3x°

<CBE = (5x+2)°

For an equation for sum of the two angles as;

<ABE + <CBE =90°

3x° + (5x+2)° = 90° ------collect like terms after opening the brackets

3x° +5x° + 2° =90°

8x°=90°-2°

8x°=88°

x°=88°/8° = 11°

Measure of the angles will be:

<ABE = 3x° = 3*11° = 33°

<CBE = (5x+2)° = (5*11° +2° ) =55°+2°= 57°

Answers are :

3x° = 33°

(5x+2)° =57°

A factory made 357,945 baseball bats over the last 2 years. During that time, the factory made 490,867 little league baseballs and 389,839 major league baseballs. How many more baseballs than bats were manufactured during the 2 years? Liliana's answer to this question is below. Her teacher says her answer is not reasonable. Look over her work before answering (a) and (b).

Answers

Answer:

522,761 baseballs

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of baseball bats produced over the last 2 years = 357, 945

Number of little league baseballs produced over the last 2 years = 490,867

Number of major league baseballs produced over the last 2 years = 389,839

Total number of baseballs produced over the period = 490,867 + 389,839

                                                                                         = 880,706

Number of baseballs manufactured more than bats = 880,706 - 357945

                                                                                      = 522,761

There are 522,761 baseballs produced more than bats during the 2 years.

the sum of two consecutive integers is -35. Name the integers

Answers

Okay so for consecutive
Your first integer can be represented by the variable x.
The second number will be x+1, since it is consecutive. (For example 1+1=2, where 1 and 2 are consecutive)

So, your equation will be
x+(x+1)=-35
Combine like terms
2x+1=-35
-1 -1
—————
2x=-36
Begin isolating the variable by moving the 1 to the right
Divide each side by 2 to completely isolate x
2x=-36
—— —-
2 2
x=-18

So, one of the numbers is -18. For the other integer, insert -18.
x+1=-18+1

-17

So one integer is -17, and the other is -18. You can check by adding these integers, which gives you -35.

Answer:

x = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- x² - 8x - 16 = 0 ( multiply through by - 1 to clear the leading negative )

x² + 8x + 16 = 0 ← this is a perfect square

(x + 4)² = 0 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 4 = 0 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x = - 4

the sum of three consecutive even numbers is 114. what is the smallest of the three numbers?​

Answers

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's let n be any number.

If we multiply n by 2, we get 2n. Since anything multiplied by 2 is even, 2n must be even. Therefore, let 2n be our first number.

So, the consecutive even number will be (2n+2) followed by (2n+4).

We know that their sum must be 114. Therefore, we can write the following equation:

[tex](2n)+(2n+2)+(2n+4)=114[/tex]

Solve for n. Combine like terms on the left:

[tex]6n+6=114[/tex]

Subtract 6 from both sides:

[tex]6n=108[/tex]

Finally, divide both sides by 6. Therefore, the value of n is:

[tex]n=108/6=18[/tex]

Therefore, our first even number is 2n or 2(18) which equates to 36.

And the consecutive even numbers will be 38 and 40.

So, the smallest of them, the first term, is 36.

Given :-

Sum of three consecutive even numbers = 114

To Find :-

The smallest number .

Solution :-

Let the three consecutive even numbers be x, x + 2 and x + 4 .

[tex] \longrightarrow \rm x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 114[/tex]

[tex] \longrightarrow \rm 3x + 6 = 114[/tex]

[tex] \longrightarrow \rm 3x = 108[/tex]

[tex] \longrightarrow \bf x = 36[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The x coordinate of the two points are the same, while the y values are different. This means that the line is vertical. A vertical line does not have a defined slope, because the change in y divided by the change in x is dividing by zero. Therefore, the answer is "undefined"

Answer:

The slope of the line is undefined.

Answers

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick two points on the graph, lets go with (0, 4) and (1, 1)

y = mx + b

m is the slope and to figure it out use below formula

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

  = (1 - 4) / (1 - 0)

  = -3 / 1

  = -3

Answer:

C. -3

Explanation:

Given problem;

 To solve for the slope of the line;

The slope of a line is the vertical distance to the horizontal displacement on a line.

  Slope  = [tex]\frac{Vertical distance}{horizontal displacement}[/tex]

For lines such as this, we use the formula below;

                        Slope  = [tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }[/tex]

To find the slope reference the image attached;

     point 1 (0,4)      x₁  = 0   y₁  = 4

     point 2 (2,-2)    x₂  = 2   y₂  = -2

Now input the parameters and solve;

          Slope  = [tex]\frac{-2 - 4}{2 - (0)}[/tex]   =    [tex]\frac{-6}{2}[/tex]  

          Slope  = -3

   

The slope of the line is -3

What is the simplest form of 4a + 8b/12​
Step by step pls

Answers

Answer:

4a + 2b/3

Step-by-step explanation:

focus on 8b/12 first:

factor 8b/12 by 4 ---> 8b/12 = 4(2)b/4(3) ----> cancel 4 in the denominator and the nominator ---> 8b/12 = 4(2)b/4(3) = 2b/3

then, go back to 4a:

4a is in its simplest form, it can't be factor

therefore, plus 4a and 2b/3 = 4a + 2b/3

Which equation has the same solution as 10x-x+5=4110 x − x + 5 = 41?

Answers

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation having same solution as linear equation 10x -x + 5 =41 is equation: 9x +5 = 41

What is an linear equation in one variable?

Linear equation is an equation containing one unknown variable with power one and constants.

The standard form of an linear equation in one variable x is :

ax + b = 0 , where a, b are constants

x= -b/ a is solution if this equation or we can solve this equation by adding or subtracting, multiplying, dividing same number to both sides.

Given equation 10x -x + 5 =41

⇒ (10-1) x = 41-5

⇒9x = 36

⇒ x= 36/9 = 4

From given options :

1. 10x + 5 =41⇒ 10x = 36 ⇒ x = 36/10 = 3.6

2. 10x - 5 +x = 41 ⇒ 11x = 41+5⇒ 11x = 46 ⇒ x = 46/11

3. 9x = 46 ⇒ x = 46/9

4. 9x +5 = 41⇒ 9x = 41-5 = 36 ⇒ 9x = 36 ⇒ x = 36/9 = 4

Therefore, the equation 9x +5 = 41 has same solution x= 4 as the given solution.
