5. Paul is x years old.
Rebecca is four times older than Paul.
Gemma is 10 years older than Paul.
the sum of their ages is 82 Years.
(a) Form a simplified equation in terms of x
(b) Solve the equation and work out each persons age.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  A) The equation will be     x + 4x + x + 10 = 82   B) Paul's age is 12, Rebecca's age is 48  and Gemma's age is 22.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will represent Paul's age by    the equation  p= x  where p is Paul

We will represent Rebecca's age by the equation  r = 4x  Where r is Rebecca

We will represent Gemma's age by the equation g = x + 10  where g is also Gemma's age.

We given that the sum of their ages is 82 years so meaning that  x + 4x + x + 10  has to equal 82.

A) The equation will be     x + 4x + x + 10 = 82  

Solve for the x equation to find Paul age because his age is x.

B)  (x) + (4x) + (x+10) = 82   combine like terms on the left side

    6x + 10 = 82

           -10    -10

   6x = 72

   x= 12  

Paul age is 12.  

r= 4(12)

r = 48

Rebecca's age is 48.

g= 12 +10

g= 22

Gemma's age is 22.

The length of a rectangle is three times the width of the rectangle. The area of the rectangle is 48cm2. Draw the rectangle on the centimetre grid.

Answers

Answer:

The width is 4 cm

The length is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle

Given a rectangle of width W and length L, its area is calculated as follows:

[tex]A=W\cdot L[/tex]

The area of the given rectangle is 48 cm^2, and the length is three times the width, thus:

L = 3W

Substituting into the formula of the area:

[tex]W\cdot L=48[/tex]

[tex]W\cdot 3W=48[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]3W^2=48[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]W^2=48/3=16[/tex]

[tex]W=\sqrt{16}=4[/tex]

The width is 4 cm. Find the length:

L=3W=3*4= 12

The length is 12 cm.

Zenzizenzicube is an obsolete word that represents the square of the square of a cube. In​ symbols, zenzizenzicube is written as

(((x^3)^2))^2

Required:
a. Use the chain rule twice to find the derivative.
b. Use the properties of exponents to first simplify the​ expression, and then find the derivative.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (((x^3)^2))^2

a) Differentiating the function with respect to x using chain rule.

Given y = (((x^3)^2))^2

Let u = (x³)²

y = u²; dy/du = 2u

Let p = x³; dp/dx = 3x²

u = p²; du/dp = 2p

Applying the chain rule formula:

dy/dx = dy/du • du/dp • dp/dx

substitute in the formula

dy/dx = 2u•2p•3x²

Since u = (x³)² and p = x³

dy/dx = 2(x³)²(2x³)(3x²)

dy/dx = 12x^6•x^5

dy/dx = 12x¹¹

b) Using property of exponent

y = (((x^3)^2))^2

y = (x^6)²

y = x¹²

dy/dx = 12x^12-1

dy/dx = 12x^11

apply the distrubtive property to simply the expression -3(6x+ 2)

Answers

Answer: -18x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the measure of CAB?

Answers

Angle CAB = 84°

∠CAB and the angle above it whose measure is 84° are vertically opposite angles , which means their measure will be equal .

∴ The measure of angle CAB = 84°

By the definition of vertically opposite angle, Measure of an angle CAB is, 84°.

What are Parallel lines?

Parallel lines are those lines that are equidistance from each other and never intersect each other.

We know that;

The vertically opposite angles are equal to each other.

Here, ∠CAB and the angle above it whose measure is 84° are vertically opposite angles.

Hence, Measure of ∠CAB = 84°

Ben drinks 3 1/2 liters of tea every 40 minutes.

This means that he would drink 1 3/4 of tea every 20 minutes (divide both sides by 2).

Now, let's multiply each side by 3.  

1.75 * 3 = 5.25 (aka 5 1/4)

The​ homoskedasticity-only F​-statistic and the​ heteroskedasticity-robust F​-statistic typically​ are:

Answers

Answer:

The​ homoskedasticity-only F​-statistic and the​ heteroskedasticity-robust F​-statistic typically​ are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

An F statistic is a value derived by running an ANOVA test or a regression analysis to find out if the means between two populations are significantly different.

The homoskedasticity-only” F-statistic is derived by running two regressions, one under the null hypothesis and one under the alternative hypothesis. If the “unrestricted” model fits sufficiently better, reject the null.

In the first regression, the restricted regression (the null hypothesis) is forced to be true. This is the regression in which all the coefficients are set to zero; the relevant regressors are excluded from the regression. In the second regression, the unrestricted regression, the alternative hypothesis is allowed to be true. If the sum of squared residuals is sufficiently smaller in the unrestricted than the restricted regression, then the test rejects the null hypothesis

The heteroskedasticity-robust F-statistic is built in to STATA (“test” command); this tests all q  restrictions at once.

The homoskedasticity-only F-statistic is important historically (and also in practice), and can  help intuition, but isn’t valid when there is heteroskedasticity

2x-10 = 65-x

just add up both alternate internal angles as they are both equal

so, the equation is: 2x-10 = 65-x

Answer:

The right equation will be 2x - 10 = 65 - x (you were wrong lol)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have: 2x - 10 = 65 - x

=> 2x - 10 + x = 65

=> 3x = 65 + 10 = 75

=> x = 75/3 = 25

And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone. But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim! And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm.

Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled."Della," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while.
