Answer:
Ruby is 11. Tanya is 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Ruby's age eight years ago be x.
Tanya's age eight years ago = 2x.
Ruby's age now = x + 8
Tanya's age now = 2x + 8
Total age = [tex]x+8+2x+8=25[/tex]
[tex]3x+16=25[/tex]
Subtract 16 from both sides:
[tex]3x+16-16=25-16[/tex]
[tex]3x=9[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3:
[tex]\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{9}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x=3[/tex]
Ruby's age now [tex]=x+8=3+8=11[/tex]
Tanya's age now [tex]=2x+8=2(3)+8=6+8=14[/tex]
Answer:
Tanya is 14; Ruby is 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let T represent Tanya's current age and let R represent Ruby's current age.
We know that their ages add up to 25. So:
[tex]T+R=25[/tex]
8 years ago, Tanya was twice as old as Ruby. In other words, Tanya's current age minus 8 is the same as Ruby's current age minus 8 times 2. So:
[tex]T-8=2(R-8)[/tex]
We have a system of equations. We can solve by substitution. From the first equation, subtract R from both sides:
[tex]T=25-R[/tex]
Substitute this into the second equation:
[tex](25-R)-8=2(R-8)[/tex]
On the left, subtract. On the right, distribute:
[tex]17-R=2R-16[/tex]
Add 16 to both sides. The right side cancels:
[tex]33-R=2R[/tex]
Add R to both sides. The left cancels:
[tex]33=3R[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3:
[tex]R=11[/tex]
So, Ruby is currently 11 years old.
So, Tanya is currently 25-11 or 14 years old.
Check:
8 years ago, Ruby was 11-8 or 3 years old.
8 years ago, Tanya is 14-8 or 6 years old.
Tanya's age of 6 is 2 times Ruby's age of 3 so our answer is correct.

x = -17/5 (Fraction form) x = -3.4
In fraction form the answer is X equals to negative 17 divided by 5 (x = -17/5)
In decimal form the answer is X equals to negative 3 point 4 (x = -3.4)
After solving the equation, the value obtained for x will be equal to -17/5.

There are two options for buying crickets option A.7 pounds of crickets for 3.15 option B.3 pounds of crickets for 1.47 which option is better to buy justify your answer
Answers
Answer: 7
pounds for 3.15 is a better option
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we want to know which of the two options is a better option for buying crickets.
To know the better option, we shall be needing the unit price in whatever system to be used;
7 pounds of crickets for 3.15;
so the unit price here will be 3.15/7 = 0.45 per pound
For the second system, we have 3 pounds for 1.47 so the unit price will be 1.47/3 = 0.49 per pound
As we can see, the first option commands a cheaper price per unit, so it is the better option to buy
Alex rolls a six-sided number cube 570 times. Approximately how many times can he expect to roll a 5?
Answers
Answer:
95 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of rolling a 5 =1/6
So no. of times 5 is expected when the number cube is rolled out 570 times = 570*1/6 = 95 times
1)First determine the probability of rolling a 5
2)Since you can only roll a 5 once in a 6-sided cube the probability is ⅙ or about 0.1667
3)Multiply the probability and the total number of rolls
.1667 * 570= 95

In this problem, we need to write the factor form of expression [tex]5p^3-10p^2+3p-6[/tex].
It can be done as follows :
[tex]5p^3-10p^2+3p-6=(5p^3+3p)+(-10p^2-6)[/tex]

A water tank holds 486 gallons but leaking at a rate 4 gallons per week. A second water tank holds 648 gallons but is leaking at a rate of 7 gallons per week. After how many weeks will the amount of water in the 2 tanks? The amount of water that holds the two tanks will be the same in _ weeks.
Answers
The first tank contains
486 gal - (4 gal/week) t
gal of water after t weeks.
Similarly, the second tank contains
648 gal - (7 gal/week) t
gal of water.
The tanks hold the same amount of water when these two amounts are equal:
486 gal - (4 gal/week) t = 648 gal - (7 gal/week) t
(7 gal/week) t - (4 gal/week) t = 648 gal - 486 gal
(3 gal/week) t = 162 gal
t = (162 gal) / (3 gal/week)
t = 54 weeks

List the first 4 terms of the sequence. f(1) = 7, f(n) = f(n-1)+4
Answers
Answer:
7, 11, 15, 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the recursive rule with f(1) = 7 , then
f(2) = f(1) + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11
f(3) = f(2) + 4 = 11 + 4 = 15
f(4) = f(3) + 4 = 15 + 4 = 19
The first 4 terms are 7, 11, 15, 19

Solve for n. 11(n – 1) + 35 = 3n
Answers
11n - 11 + 35 = 3n
8n = - 24
n = - 3
Answer:
n = -3Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
11(n + -1) + 35 = 3n
Reorder the terms:
11(-1 + n) + 35 = 3n
(-1 * 11 + n * 11) + 35 = 3n
(-11 + 11n) + 35 = 3n
Reorder the terms:
-11 + 35 + 11n = 3n
Combine like terms: -11 + 35 = 24
24 + 11n = 3n
Solving
24 + 11n = 3n
Solving for variable 'n'.
Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3n' to each side of the equation.
24 + 11n + -3n = 3n + -3n
Combine like terms: 11n + -3n = 8n
24 + 8n = 3n + -3n
Combine like terms: 3n + -3n = 0
24 + 8n = 0
Add '-24' to each side of the equation.
24 + -24 + 8n = 0 + -24
Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0
0 + 8n = 0 + -24
8n = 0 + -24
Combine like terms: 0 + -24 = -24
8n = -24
Divide each side by '8'.
n = -3
Simplifying
n = -3

At a grocery store, Rick bought 4 loaves of bread and 3 gallons of milk for $20. Danny bought 6 loaves of bread and 2 gallons of milk for $25. Identify the cost of a loaf of bread and a gallon of milk
Answers
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call the cost of a bread loaf b and the cost of a milk gallon m. Here is the info we have.
4b+3m=20
6b+2m=25
We solve one equation for b or m (we will solve the first one for b.
4b+3m=20
Subtract 3m from both sides.
4b=20-3m
We divide both sides by 4.
b=5-3/4m
We plug this value of b into the second equation to solve for m.
6(5-3/4m)+2m=25
We use distributive property to undo the parentheses.
30-4.5m+2m=25
We combine like terms.
30-2.5m=25
We subtract 30 from both sides.
-2.5m=-5
We divide both sides by -2.5
m=2
We plug this m into one of the original equations to find b.
4b+3(2)=20
4b+6=20
Subtract 6 from both sides.
4b=14
Divide both sides by 4.
b=3.5
So, a loaf of bread costs $3.50 and a gallon of milk costs $2.00.
