Alicia, Quentin, and Rosalyn are siblings. Alicia is the oldest sibling. Quentin is four years younger than Alicia. Rosalyn is two years older than Quentin. The sum of the siblings’ ages, in years, is 48. How old is Alicia?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Alicia is 18years

Quentin is 14years

Rosalyn is 16years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Alicia be x

Let the age of Quentin be y

Let the age of Rosalyn be z

If the sum of the siblings’ ages, in years, is 48 then;

x+y+z = 48.... 1

If Rosalyn is two years older than Quentin then;

z =y+2 ..... 2

Also if Quentin is four years younger than Alicia then;

y = x-4 ... 3

From 3:

x = y+4 ... 4

Substitute 2 and 4 into 1 to have:

y+4+y+y+2 = 48

3y + 6= 48

3y = 48-6

3y= 42

y = 14

Since x= y+4

x = 14+4

x = 18

Since z = y+2

z = 14+2

z = 16year

This means that;

Alicia is 18years

Quentin is 14years

Rosalyn is 16years

The volumes of two cylindrical cans of the same shape vary directly as the cubes of their radii. If a can with a six-inch radius holds 1½ pints, how many gallons will a similar can with a 24-inch radius hold?

Answers

Answer:

The second similar can with a radius of 24-inch radius will hold 12 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volumes of the cylindrical can ∝ (The radius of the cans)³

The volume of first can, V₁ = 1¹/₂ pints

The radius of the first can, r₁ = 6-inch

The radius of the second can, r₂ = 24-inch

Therefore, we have;

V ∝ r³

V = k × r³

∴ 1¹/₂ pints ∝ (6 in.)³

1¹/₂ pints = 43.3125 in³

∴ 43.3125 in³ = k × 216 in.³

The constant of proportionality, k = 43.3125/216 = 0.2005208333

Therefore, we have for the second can, we have;

V₂ = k × r₂³ = 43.3125/216 × (24 in.)³ = 2772 in.³

The volume of the second can = 2772 in.³

1 in.³ = 0.004329 gallons

∴ 2772 in.³ = 2772 × 0.004329 gallons = 12 gallons

Therefore, the volume the second similar can with a 24-inch radius will hold = 12 gallons.

on a graph there are two points (0,3) and (8,0) what is the proper equation​

Answers

Answer:

The line equation of the line is:

[tex]y=-\frac{3}{8}x+3[/tex]          

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two points

(0,3)(8,0)

Finding the slope between (0,3) and (8,0)

[tex]\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:3\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(8,\:0\right)[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{0-3}{8-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=-\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line: m = -3/8

Using the point-slope form of the line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

where m is the slope of the line and (x₁, y₁) is the point

substituting the values m = -3/8 and the point (0,3)

[tex]y-3=-\frac{3}{8}\left(x-0\right)[/tex]

[tex]y-3=-\frac{3}{8}x[/tex]

Add 3 to both sides

[tex]y-3+3=-\frac{3}{8}x+3[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y=-\frac{3}{8}x+3[/tex]

Therefore, the line equation of the line is:

[tex]y=-\frac{3}{8}x+3[/tex]          

A model is made of an Airbus A300 aeroplane.
The length of the model is 36 cm.
The length of the real aeroplane is 54 m.

Answers

Answer:

Since the Airbus A300 model airplane was made to scale, measuring 36 centimeters, while the real airplane measures 54 meters, to determine the scale ratio between both planes, the following calculation must be performed:

36cm = 0.36m

0.36 = 1

54 = X

54 x 1 / 0.36 = X

150 = X

Therefore, the scale ratio between the model and the real plane is 150:1.
