Will is w years old.
Ben is 3 years older.
1. Write an expression, in terms of w, for Ben's age.
Jan is twice as old as Ben.
2. Write an expression, in terms of w, for Jan's age.
If you add together the ages of Will, Ben and Jan the total comes to 41 years.
3. Form an equation and solve it to work out how old Will, Ben, and Jan are.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Will is 8 years old, Ben is 11 years old, and Jan is 22 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Ben is 3 years older, his age can be represented by w + 3

Jan is twice as old as Ben, so her age can be represented by 2(w + 3)

Set up an equation that adds up these expressions and sets it equal to 41:

(w) + (w + 3) + 2(w + 3) = 41

Simplify, add like terms, and solve for w:

(w) + (w + 3) + 2(w + 3) = 41

(w) + (w + 3) + (2w + 6) = 41

4w + 9 = 41

4w = 32

w = 8

So, Will is 8 years old.

Find Ben's age by adding 3 to this:

8 + 3

= 11

Find Jan's age by multiplying this by 2:

11(2)

= 22

So, Will is 8 years old, Ben is 11 years old, and Jan is 22 years old

Answer:

m∠b = 92 ; m∠c = 92

Step-by-step explanation:

∠b and ∠c both form supplementary angles with the 88° angle. I'll just choose b in this instance.

b + 88 = 180

b = 92

Now we know that ∠b is 92°.

Moreover, ∠c and ∠b are known as vertical angles meaning they are equivalent to each other. Therefore, ∠c is also 92°

Answer:

  ∠E = ∠A = 34°; ∠AFB = ∠DFE = 107°-34° = 73°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's where I'd go next.

73° (∠EDA) is exterior to ΔDAC, so is the sum of remote interior angles A and C. That is, ...

  ∠C + ∠A = 73°

  ∠C = 73° -∠A = 73° -39° = 34°

Triangle CBE is given as isosceles, so its base angles C and E are congruent, both 34°.

Exterior angle CDF is the sum of remote interior angles DEF and DFE, so we have ...

  107° = 34° +∠DFE

  ∠DFE = 107° -34° = 73°

The angle we just found (∠DFE) is a vertical angle with ∠AFB, so has the same measure.

  ∠AFB = 73° . . . . vertical angle with ∠DFE

_____

In summary, it looks like we have added some steps to the derivation:

  4. ∠A = 34° . . . . exterior angle theorem (∠A +39° = 73°)

  5. ∠E = ∠A = 34° . . . . definition of isosceles triangle

  6. ∠DFE = 73° . . . . exterior angle theorem (∠E +34° = 107°)

  7. ∠AFB = 73° . . . . vertical angles

_____

Additional comment

Any sort of math problem solving has you work from what you know to what you need to know by making use of previously learned relationships between the bits of information you have. Here, you really only need to know (a) angles of a linear pair total 180°; (b) angles in a triangle total 180°; (c) angles opposite congruent sides in a triangle are congruent. Everything we claim above can be concluded using these facts. The various theorems we used are simply shortcuts that allow you to bypass intermediate steps in the problem-solving process.

It has a single solution: x= -3, y = 26.

Answers

Answer:

one solution:  x = -3,  y = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y = 17

x + 2y = 49

If you multiply the first equation by -2 and then add you will eliminate the 'y' term

-2(3x + y) = -2(17)

  -6x - 2y = -34

PLEASE HELP! The vertices of square LMNO are L(0, 2), M(2, 0), N(0,−2), and O(−2, 0). Which of the following shows that its diagonals are congruent perpendicular bisectors of each other? I ATTACHED THE IMAGES.

Answers

Answer:

The fourth one is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

To show the diagonals are congruent, calculate their lengths using the Distance Formula: d=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√.

Find the length of LN.

Substitute 0 for x1, 2 for y1, 0 for x2 and −2 for y2.

LN=(0−0)2+(−2−2)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=02+(−4)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=8‾√

Find the length of MO.

Substitute 2 for x1, 0 for y1, −2 for x2 and 0 for y2.

MO=(−2−2)2+(0−0)2‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=(−4)2+02‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√

=8‾√

Since LN=MO, by the definition of congruent line segments, LN=MO.

To show the diagonals are perpendicular, calculate their slopes using the Slope Formula: m=y2−y1x2−x1.

Find the slope of LN.

Substitute 0 for x1, 2 for y1, 0 for x2 and −2 for y2.

m1=−2−20−0=−40⇒m1 cannot be defined.

Find the slope of MO.

Substitute 2 for x1, 0 for y1, −2 for x2 and 0 for y2.

m2=0−0−2−2

=0−4

=0

The slope of LN cannot be defined, this means that LN is parallel to y-axis. The slope of MO is equal to 0, this means that MO is parallel to x-axis. x and y axis are perpendicular, therefore LN⊥MO.

The figure shows the same square L M N O on a Cartesian plane as in the beginning of the task. Diagonal L N is perpendicular to diagonal M O.

To show the diagonals bisect each other, calculate their midpoints using the Midpoint Formula: P(x1+x22,y1+y22).

Find the midpoint of LN.

Substitute 0 for x1, 2 for y1, 0 for x2 and −2 for y2.

P1(0+02,2+(−2)2)=(0, 0)

Find the midpoint of MO.

Substitute 2 for x1, 0 for y1, −2 for x2 and 0 for y2.

P2(2+(−2)2,0+02)=(0, 0)

Both midpoints are the same point on the coordinate plane. This means the two diagonals intersect at their midpoints, or bisect each other.

The figure shows the same square L M N O on a Cartesian plane as in the beginning of the task. The diagonals intersect at point P. Segments L P, P N, M P, and P O are congruent.

Therefore, the diagonals are congruent perpendicular bisectors of each other.

Use calculator. Also, you can just treat it as normal multiplication and choose the one with the same units. so it would be 8, but then the next thing you would need to look at is the exponent. Since 8^6 is not the same exponent as the two in the problem, it has to be the 8^3, which are the same

Answer:

option (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

ABCD is a square.

AC and BD are diagonals

We know that,

Sides of the square make 90 degrees with each other.

And Diagonals bisect the opposite angles of the square.

Now,

[tex]\angle ABD = \dfrac{\angle ABC}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\angle ABC = 90^\circ[/tex]

[tex]\angle ABD = \dfrac{\angle ABC}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\angle ABD = \dfrac{90^\circ}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\angle ABD = 45^\circ[/tex]

Hence, option (c) is correct.
