To solve this, we need to turn this word problem into a system of linear equations. To do this, let's use x to stand for Mr. Fontana's age, and y to stand for his son's age.
The first sentence states that eight years ago, Mr. Fontana was six times as old as his son.
eight years ago = x - 8
Fontana was six times as old as his son = 6(y - 8). Remember, we need subtract 8 from his son's age, which is why I wrote it as 6(y - 8), and his father was 6 times his son's age 8 years ago, which is why I multiplied 6 by y - 8.
Now, putting this all together gives us our first equation:
x - 8 = 6(y - 8)
We can now rewrite this equation in standard form:
x - 8 = 6y - 48 ----->
x - 6y = -48 + 8 ----->
x - 6y = -40 <----- this is our first linear equation
To find our second, we need to turn the second sentence into an equation. It says that in 12 years, Mr. Fontana will be twice as old as his son:
x + 12 = 2(y + 12)
Now, we need to rewrite this equation in standard form:
x + 12 = 2y + 24 ----->
x - 2y = 24 - 12 ----->
x - 2y = 12 <----- this is our second linear equation. We now have our system of equations:
x - 6y = -40
x - 2y = 12
Now we can find the father's age (x) and his son's age (y). First, multiply the second equation by -1, giving us:
x - 6y = -40
-x + 2y = -12
Now we can add both equations together:
x - x - 6y + 2y = -40 + -12 ----->
-4y = -52
Solve for y, by dividing both sides of the equation by -4, giving us:
y = 13
So, now we know the son's age: 13
To find the father's age, replace y in either the first equation or the second equation, with 13. Let's use the first equation:
x - 6(13) = -40 ----->
x - 78 = -40 ----->
x = 78 - 40 ----->
x = 38
Therefore, Mr. Fontana is 38 years old and his son is 13 years old.

what is the eight term of the arithmetic sequence defined by the rule A(n)=-12+2(n-1) RIGHT ANSWER ONLY
Answer:
a₈ = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute n = 8 into the nth term rule
A(8) = - 12 + 2(8 - 1) = - 12 + 2(7) = - 12 + 14 = 2
1) Use the distributive property to write an expression that is equivalent to 8(a + 4).
8(a + 4) = _a + _

Measure the paper clip to the nearest 1/8 inch.
A. 1 2/8 inches
B. 1 1/2 inches
C. 1 4/8 inches
D. 1 3/8 inches
Answer:
1 3/8 D
Step-by-step explanation:
The first and most obvious part of the answer is that the paper clip is at least 1 inch long. The question is how much longer?
It is between 1/4 of an inch and 1/2 of an inch. In fact it is exactly half way between them.
So that resembles an average.
(1/4 + 1/2)/2 = (1/4 + 2/4) / 2 = (3/4)/2
[tex]\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{2} = \frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{2}{1} }[/tex]
Now the trick is to invert the denominator (make it 1/2) and multiply
3/4 * 1/2 = 3/8
What is 2-b/3=-5/2
Please explain thoroughly and only explain the 2-step version
Answer:
b = 13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
2 -b/3 = -5/2
im assuming we want to find b. therefore we want b = something. so because b is on top of a fraction right now, I will multiply both sides by 3 so -b is not on top of a fraction anymore.
6 -b = -15/2
we should get rid of the divided by 2 on the other side too, to make it easier. we can do this by multiplying 2 on both sides.
12 - 2b = -15
remember, we want to isolate b. so first we should get rid of the 12 next to the 2b. we can do this by subtracting 12 on both sides!
-2b = -27
finally, we can divide both sides by -2 and b will be isolated!
b = 13.5

Answer:
6311000
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we do is calculate the total amount of people in both states. 6.89 x10 raised to the 6th power is equal to 6890000. Then we multiply 5.79 by 10 to the fifth power, which equals to 579000. Then we subtract the numbers, and get 6311000. They want you to answer in standard notation, which is the regular way of writing numbers such as 10, instead of 10^1.
The difference in population
[tex] = (6.89 \times {10}^{6} ) - (5.79 \times {10}^{5} ) \\ = (6.89 \times 10 \times {10}^{5} ) - (5.79 \times {10}^{5} ) \\ = (68.9 \times {10}^{5} ) - (5.79 \times {10}^{5} ) \\ = (68.9 - 5.79) \times {10}^{5} \\ = 63.11 \times {10}^{5} [/tex]

a dogs hair grew 2 1/2 inches in 12 1/2weeks how long will the hair grow in 1 week?
Answer:
0.2 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
12.5 weeks = 2.5 inches
1 week = p inches
Cross multiply
12.5p = 2.5
Divide both sides by 12.5
p = 2.5 / 12.5
p = 0.2 inches
Hence, the length grown in 1 week is 0.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:
you have to be careful what you are typing.
the way you wrote the numbers Asia would be a tiny place with very few people.
but I think you meant to say :
area is 4.46 × 10⁷ km²
with 3.70 × 10⁹ people.
people / km² = 3.70/4.46 × 10⁹/10⁷ =
= 0.829596413... × 10² = 82.9596413... =
= 82.96 people/km²
The population density will be equal to 82.96 people/km2. The correct option is B.
What is an expression?Expression in maths is defined as the collection of numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping can all be represented by mathematical symbols, which can also be used to indicate the logical syntax's order of operations and other features.
Given that the area is 4.46 × 10⁷ km² with 3.70 × 10⁹ people. The population density will be calculated as below:-
Density = people / km² = ( 3.70 × 10⁹ ) / ( 4.46 x 10⁷ )
Density = 0.829596413... × 10² = 82.9596413
Density = 82.96 people/km²
Therefore, the population density will be equal to 82.96 people/km2. The correct option is B.

Based on the graph, what is true about polygon ABCD?
a. The polygon is a hexagon
b. The area of the polygon is 96 square units
c. The perimeter is 20 unit
d. Side AD is congruent to side DC
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The Width of the Rectangle (read Polygon) is 8 units and the Length of the Rectangle is 12 units.
The area of the polygon is 96 square units. Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
From the given graph, we have polygon ABCD.
From the graph, we have AB=DC=12 units and BC=AD=8 units.
Here, the given polygon is rectangle.
Area of a rectangle = Length×Breadth
Now, area of a rectangle = 12×8

17
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller number = x
Let the larger number = y
y = 2x + 8
y - x = 25 Add x to both sides
y = x + 25 Substitute this into the first equation
x + 25 = 2x + 8 Subtract 8 from both sides
x + 25 - 8 = 2x Combine
x + 17 = 2x Subtract x from both sides.
17 = 2x - x Combine

what is the length of FD? Need help do tomorrow!!!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The tenure of an FD can vary from 7, 15 or 45 days to 1.5 years and can be as high as 10 years. These investments are safer than Post Office Schemes as they are covered by the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC).
The length of FD in a right-angled triangle with EC as 18 units and CF as 26 units is 20.2 units.
The length of FD can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the hypotenuse is FD, and the other two sides are EC and CF.
EC = 18 units
CF = 26 units
Plugging these values into the Pythagorean Theorem, we get:
[tex]FD^2[/tex] = [tex]EC^2[/tex] + [tex]CF^2[/tex]
[tex]FD^2[/tex] = [tex]18^2[/tex] + [tex]26^2[/tex]
[tex]FD^2[/tex] = 324 + 676
[tex]FD^2[/tex] = 1000
FD = [tex]\sqrt{[/tex](1000)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This relation (this group of points) is NOT a function. In order to be a function, every x-value (the first number in the pair) can only be paired up with one y-value (only one partner for the x)
In this relation, -6 is paired up with four different y-values (four different partners!)
If you plotted these points on a graph, you would see they are all lined up in a vertical line. If you have learned about the vertical line test, you will see that a vertical line goes through all four points. This set of points fails the vertical line test. To be a function, a vertical line can only touch the points one at a time.

Answer:
[tex]y-3=7(x-6)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Pre-SolvingWe are given that a line has a slope (m) of 7 and passes through the point (6,3).
We want to write the equation of this line.
There are three ways to do it:
Slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the value of y at the y-intercept.Point-slope form, which is [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex] where m is the slope and [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is a point. Standard form, which is ax+by=c where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients.As the question doesn't specify, either form should work, but let's write the equation in point-slope form as that's the easiest to do.
SolvingAs we are already given both the point and the slope, we can plug them both into the equation.
Starting with the slope, substitute 7 for m.
[tex]y-y_1=7(x-x_1)[/tex]
Now, substitute 6 as [tex]x_1[/tex] and 3 as [tex]y_1[/tex].
