Rafael has 19 shirts to fold. Let N be the number of shirts he would have left to fold after folding F of them. Write an equatio

Answer: 1) equation relating both

N+F = 19

2)N = 7

$\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}$

Revathi's age is 1/3 of her mother's age. If their difference in age is 24 years, find Revathi's age.

$\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}$

Given,

Mother's age = x
Revathi's age = 1/3 x = ?
Difference in their age = 24 years ⇨ x - 1/3 x = 24.

Now, let's solve this question using the above equation which we just formed.

$\sf \: x - \frac{1}{3}x = 24 \\$

Combine x and $\sf\:-\frac{1}{3}x$ to get $\sf\frac{2}{3}x$ .

$\sf\frac{2}{3}x=24 \\$

Multiply both sides by $\sf\frac{3}{2}$ , the reciprocal of $\sf\frac{2}{3}$ .

$\sf \: x=24\times \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)$

Express $\sf24\times \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)$ as a single fraction.

$\sf \: x=\frac{24\times 3}{2} \\$

Multiply 24 and 3 to get 72.

$\sf \: x=\frac{72}{2} \\$

Divide 72 by 2 to get 36.

$\boxed{ \bf \: x=36 }$

We now have the age of Revathi's mother (x) = <u>36 years</u>. Now, let's find Revathi's age ⇨ $\sf\:(\frac{1}{3}x)$

$\rightarrow \sf \: \frac{1}{3} x \\ \rightarrow \sf \: \frac{1}{3} \times 36 \\ \rightarrow \sf \: \frac{1}{ \bcancel 3} \times \bcancel{36} \\ \rightarrow \sf \:1 \times 12 \\ = \boxed{\boxed{\bf \: 12}}$

So, Revathi is <em><u>1</u></em><em><u>2</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>years </u></em><em><u>old.</u></em>

What is the midpoint

liq [111]

Answer:

midpoint formula:

x1+x2/2 y1+y2/2

-4 + (-2)/2 which then simplifies to -6/2 and then to -3

2 + 2 /2 which then simplifies to 2

x= -3

y= 2

so (-3,2) is the coordinate point of the midpoint of this segment
