A father is 28 years older than his daughter. In six years' time, he will be three times her age. Find their present ages.

Please use an algebraic equation to find the answer and show your working out if possible!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

let the daughter's age be x then father is x + 28

In 6 years their ages are

x + 6 and x + 28 + 6 = x + 34

Father is 3 times her age , then equation is

x + 34 = 3(x + 6) ← distribute

x + 34 = 3x + 18 ( subtract x from both sides )

34 = 2x + 18 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

16 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )

8 = x

Daughter's age is 8 and father's age is 8 + 28 = 36

Answer:

next term: 15an = n(n+1)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term is the previous term with the current term number added. The 5th term will be 5 + (4th term) = 5 + 10 = 15.

The next term is 15.

_____

The sequence of triangular numbers is given by the explicit formula ...

   an = n(n+1)/2

__

Finding the Formula

The sequence of first differences is ...

  3 -1 = 2

  6 -3 = 3

  10 -6 = 4

And the sequence of second differences is ...

  3 -2 = 1

  4 -3 = 1

These are constant, indicating the sequence is described by a polynomial function of 2nd degree.

There are several ways to find the coefficients of the quadratic function. One is to solve for them using a system of equations.

n = 1

  a1 = 1 = a(1)^2 +b(1) + c

n = 2

  a2 = 3 = a(2)^2 + b(2) +c

n = 3

  a3 = 6 = a(3)^2 +b(3) +c

To solve, we can subtract each equation from the next:

  a2 -a1 = (3) -(1) = a(4 -1) +b(2 -1) +c(1 -1)

  2 = 3a +b

and

  a3 -a2 = (6) -(3) = a(9 -4) +b(3 -2) +c(1 -1)

  3 = 5a +b

Now we can subtract the first of these equation from the second:

  (3) -(2) = a(5 -3) +b(1 -1)   ⇒   1 = 2a   ⇒   a = 1/2

Then ...

  2 = 3(1/2) +b

  1/2 = b

  1 = a + b + c   ⇒   1 = 1/2 + 1/2 + c   ⇒   c = 0

So, the quadratic function describing the sequence of triangular numbers is ...

  an = (1/2)(n^2 +n)

  an = n(n+1)/2

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

25%= 1/4 of the class

1/4 *x=6

x=24

6 / x = 25% / 100%

6 multiplied by 100 = 600
600 divided by 25 = 24

Answers

Answer:

m <5 = 65°

m<8 = 115°

Step-by-step explanation:

m<2= m<5 = 65° (vertically opposite angles are equal)

m<5 + m<4 = 180 (co-int angles, parallel lines)

65+ m<4 =180

m<4 = 115°

Therefore

m<4=m<8 = 115° (vertically opposite angles are equal)

Answer:

m<5 = 65 degrees  m<8 = 115 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

m<2 = 65 degrees

m<2 = m<5 so

m<5 = 65 degrees

A line is 180 degrees, so

180 degrees - 65 degrees = 115 degrees

m<8 = 115 degrees

In degrees, what is the measure of MFE?

Answers

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

It tells us that MFE is equal to (x + 6)° so we need to find x

The angle accross from MFE is RFT. These angles are congruent, because they are a vertical pair. So RFT is also equal to (x + 6)°

The angle RFT and PFR combined form a right angle. This means that RFT + PFR = 90°.

They told us that PFR = (3x - 4)°

so that means that (x + 6) + (3x - 4) = 90°

Knowing that we can just solve the equation by combining like terms

4x + 2 = 90

      Subtract two from both sides

4x = 88

       And then divide by 4

x = 22

Now we can plug in 22 in the original equation to find MFE

22 + 6 = 30

so MFE = 30°

Make r the subject - picture underneath

Answers

Answer:

The answer is r = 6a / (5m² - 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps are :

[tex]m = \sqrt{ \frac{6a + r}{5r} } [/tex]

[tex] {m}^{2} = \frac{6a + r}{5r} [/tex]

[tex]5r {m}^{2} = 6a + r[/tex]

[tex]5r {m}^{2} - r = 6a[/tex]

[tex]r(5 {m}^{2} - 1) = 6a[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{6a}{5 {m}^{2} - 1 } [/tex]

Answer:

r = [tex]\frac{6a}{5m^2-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{6a+r}{5r} }[/tex] ( square both sides )

m² = [tex]\frac{6a+r}{5r}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 5r )

5rm² = 6a + r ( subtract r from both sides )

5rm² - r = 6a ← factor out r from each term on the left side

r(5m² - 1) = 6a ← divide both sides by (5m² - 1)

r = [tex]\frac{6a}{5m^2-1}[/tex]
