Answer:
4 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
let their ages be x and x - 5, then in 4 years their ages will be
x + 4 and x - 5 + 4 = x - 1 , and the product is 104, thus
(x + 4)(x - 1) = 104 ← expand factors on left using FOIL
x² + 3x - 4 = 104 ( subtract 104 from both sides )
x² + 3x - 108 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 12)(x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 12 = 0 ⇒ x = - 12
x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9
However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 9
Thus
Their present ages are 9 and 9 - 5 = 4
5(x-2) or 5x-10 are both correct
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 16
8 + 16
= 24
You just plug in 8 in the x place. Hope this helps, thank you !!
To find what percentage one number is of another; divide the first number by the other number and multiply by 100 !
p = ( 6 / 76 )× 100 ;
p = 600 / 76 ;
p = 7.89 ≈ 8 ;
p% = 8% ;
