Amanda has been employed at a company for 37 years. The company is 24 years older than Amanda. The sum of Amanda age and the company’s age is 121 years. How old was Amanda when she started her job?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

11 1/2 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Amanda's age be a.

Let the company's age be c.

The company is 24 years older than Amanda. This means that:

c = 24 + a ______(1)

The sum of Amanda's age and the company's age is 121 years. This means that:

c + a = 121 ________(2)

Put (1) in (2):

24 + a + a = 121

2a = 121 - 24

2a = 97

a = 97 / 2 = 48 1/2 years

She has been there for 37 years, therefore, her age when she started working there is:

48 1/2 - 37 = 11 1/2 years old

NOTE: This age doesn't seem right but I worked based on the parameters given.

European car company advertises that theircar gers 9.4 Kilometers per liter of gasoline. Convert
this figure to miles per galllon

Answers

Answer:

22.11 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

1 km = 0.621371 miles

1 litre = 0. 264172 gallon

Given

Mileage of car = 9.4 Milometers per liter of gasoline

Mileage of car = 9.4 Km/ litres

now we will use 0.621371 miles for Km and 0. 264172 gallon for litres

Mileage of car = 9.4 * 0.621371 miles/ 0. 264172 gallon

Mileage of car = 9.4 * 2.3521 miles/ gallon

Mileage of car = 22.11 miles/ gallon

Thus, 9.4 Km/litres is same as 22.11 miles per gallon.

what is perimeter?

The perimeter formula for a rectangle states that P = (L + W) × 2, where P represents perimeter, L represents length, and W represents width.

Given:

length = 24 inches

width = 36 inches

So, amount of ribbon needed

=2(36+ 24)

=2(60)

=120 inches

Hence, the amount of ribbon needed is 120 inches
