Eli is now one quarter of his father’s age. In 5 years’ time his age will be one third of
his father’s age. How old is Eli now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 10×4=40

10+5=15

40+5=45

45/15=3

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E and F represent Eli and his Father's current ages.

We are told that E = (1/4)F.  ["Eli is now one quarter of his father’s age"]

But in 5 years, that will be:

(E+5) = (1/3)(F+5)       ["In 5 years’ time his age will be one third of

his father’s age"]

-------------

We have two equations and two unknowns.  Find a way to eliminate one of the two variables and then solve for the remaining variable.

E = (1/4)F

(E+5) = (1/3)(F+5)

It seems to me the easiest would be to use the first equation's definition of E [=(1/4)F] in the second equation:

(E+5) = (1/3)(F+5)

((1/4)F+5) = (1/3)(F+5)

(1/4)F - (1/3)F = (1/3)*5 - 5

F - (4/3)F = (4/3)*5 - 20

-(1/3)F = (20/3) - (60/3)

-(1/3)F = (-40/3)

F = (120/3)

F = 40 years

E = 10 years  (based on E = (1/4)F)

====

In five years:  F is 45 and E is 15, which would make Eli  1/3 of his father's age in 5 years.

Question 10 options:

0 - 48


0 - 3


16 - 48


0 - 16

Answers

Answer:

B im very sorry if im wrong <3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:48

Step-by-step explanation:Required equation is y - 36 = (24 - 36)/(2 - 1) (x - 1)

y - 36 = -12(x - 1)

y - 36 = -12x + 12

12x + y = 12 + 36

12x + y = 48

You are running a fuel economy study. One of the cars you find is blue. It can travel 44 1/2miles on 1 and 1/4 gallons of gasoline. Another car is red. It can travel 27 1/5 miles on 4/5 gallon of gasoline. What is the unit rate for miles per gallon for each car? Which car could travel the greater distance on 1 gallon of gasoline?

Answers

Answer:

Blue car

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the miles per gallon rate of each car

Blue car:

44 1/2 ÷ 1 1/4 = 89/2 ÷ 5/4 = 89/2 × 4/5 = 356 / 10 = 35.6 miles per gallon

Red car:

27 1/5 ÷ 4/5 = 136/5 × 5/4 = 136/4 = 34 miles per gallon

According the rates, the blue car could travel the greater distance

Answers

The percentage of the amount which should be expected to be paid from the insurance policy based on the part time work Helen has been doing is:

Two-thirds of their average weekly wage

Based on the given question, we can see that partial disability benefit is the theme in play here as Helen has been sick and been working on a part time basis which helps her to be eligible for partial disability benefit.

Under this type of disability benefit, Helen is entitled to get about two-thirds of her average weekly wage because she is working part time because of her disability which is her sickness.

sin x = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex] , then

x = [tex]sin^{-1}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex] ) ≈ 41.8° ( to the nearest tenth )

(2)

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan x = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{29}{14}[/tex] , then

x = [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{29}{14}[/tex] ) ≈ 64.2° ( to the nearest tenth )

(3)

Jay decides to take out a $12,000 student loan during his first year in college. If he is charged 4.5% interest that is compounded annually, how much will the total loan amount equal in four years when he graduates?

Answers

Answer:

2,160.00

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so first we have to find 4.5% of 12,000

which is 540, then multiply 540 by the four years and

540 x 4 = 2,160.00

The total loan amount would be equal to $14,310 in four years when Jay graduates.

Given the following data:

Principal = $12,000Interest rate = 4.5%Time = 4 years

To determine how much (future value) the total loan amount would equal in four years when he graduates:

Mathematically, compound interest is given by the formula:

[tex]A = P(1 + r)^{t}[/tex]

Where;

A is the future value.P is the principal or amount borrowed.r is annual interest rate.t is the number of years for the compound interest.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]A = 12000(1 + 0.045)^{4}\\\\A=12000(1.045)^{4}\\\\A=12000(1.1925)[/tex]

Future value, A = $14,310

A curve is represented by x = 3sec θ, y = 3tan θ where 0 < θ < /2.
Which of the following is the y intercept of the tangent to the curve at (2√3, √3)?

Answers

Applying derivative concepts, the y-intercept of the line tangent to the curve at (2√3, √3) is: [tex]y = \sqrt{3}[/tex]

The equation of the line is:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

In which:

There is a point [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex].The slope is [tex]m = \frac{\frac{dy}{d\theta}}{\frac{dx}{d\theta}}[/tex]

In this problem, point [tex](2\sqrt{3}, \sqrt{3})[/tex], hence [tex]x_1 = 2\sqrt{3}, y_1 = \sqrt{3}[/tex]

To find the value of [tex]\theta[/tex], we have that:

[tex]3\tan{\theta} = \sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex]\tan{\theta} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\theta = \frac{\pi}{6}[/tex]

Then, for the slope:

[tex]\frac{dy}{d\theta} = 3\sec^{2}{\theta}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dx}{d\theta} = 3\sec{\theta}\tan{\theta}[/tex]

Considering [tex]\theta = \frac{\pi}{6}[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{dy}{d\theta} = 3\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^2 = 2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dx}{d\theta} = 3\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right) = 2[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{\frac{dy}{d\theta}}{\frac{dx}{d\theta}} = 1[/tex]

Then, the equation of the line is:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y - \sqrt{3} = x - 2\sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex]y = x - \sqrt{3}[/tex]

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, hence:

[tex]y = \sqrt{3}[/tex]

Answer:

5.8

miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since area is l×b or l×l since its a square(sides are equal) we can conclude that S×S=33.64

Another way to represent this is

[tex] {s}^{2} = 33.64[/tex]

to get S we can square root both sides

[tex]s = \sqrt{33.64} [/tex]

[tex] \sqrt{33.64} = 5.8[/tex]

Therefore S=5.8miles

Answer = about 5.82 miles squared

Explanation: The shape is a square meaning all of the side lengths are the same. So the square root of 33.84 is 5.82 and 5.82 to the second power is about 33.84.
