A girl is 6 years older than her brother than - 1

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

1 = brother's age now.

4 = brothers age in 3 years.

7 = girls age now.

10 = girls age in 3 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to get x by itself first.

(x + 6) + 3 = 2(x + 3) + 2

x +9 = 2x + 8

-x + 9 = 8

-x = -1

x = 1

This is her brothers age when she is 6 years older than him.

Now you will take the 1 and put it in the x +3 = brother's age in 3 years.

The brother will be 4 in 3 years.

The girl will be 7 when her brother is born.

Then you will take the 1 and put it into (x + 6) +3 = 10.

The girl will be 10 in 3 years.

1 = brother's age now.

4 = brothers age in 3 years.

7 = girls age now.

10 = girls age in 3 years.

Como resolver y=1-2.5

Answers


I don't really speak Spanish but I'll guess that says

 How do I solve  y = 1 - 2.5

Unless I'm missing something, there's not even any algebra here.  

The way we subtract a bigger number from a smaller number is first we subtract the smaller number from the bigger number the regular way, then we prepend a minus sign.


y = 1 - 2.5 = -(2.5 - 1) = -1.5

Kevin uses 84 fluid ounces of water to make an all purpose cleaner the directions call for 4 fluid ounces of concentrated soap for every 3 cups of water how many fluid ounces of soap should he use? ( 1 cup=8 fl oz)​

Answers

Answer: He should use 14 fluid ounces of soap.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You need to make the conversion from cups to ounces.

You know that:

1\ cup = 8\ fluid\ ounce

Then:

(3\ cups)((8\ fluid\ ounce)/(1\ cup))=24\ fluid\ ounce

2. According to the information given in the exercise, Kevin must use 4 fluid ounces of concentrated soap for every 3 cups of water or 24 fluid ounces of water.

Then, knowing that he uses 84 fluid ounces of water to make an all-purpose cleaner, you can set up the following proportion:

(4)/(24)=(x)/(84)

Where "x" is the total fluid ounces of soap that Kevin should use.

3. Solving for "x", you get this result:

(84)((4)/(24))=x\n\nx=14

Sean has a job to tile a room 15 ft x 20 ft with 1 ft. square tiles. How many tiles does he need? A)

Dimensions of room = 15 ft × 20 ft

Area of tiles = 1 ft. square

Find:

Number of tiles required

Computation:

Area of room = 15 × 20

Area of room = 300 ft, square

Number\ of\ tiles\ required = (Area\ of\ room)/(Area\ of\ tiles) \n\nNumber\ of\ tiles\ required = (300)/(1) \n\nNumber\ of\ tiles\ required = 300 \ tiles
