Answer:
*name* is 10 years old now and brother is 15 years now
In 10 years they would be 20 and 25 respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = *name*'s age now
let y = brother's age now
The first relationship is that the ratio of their ages now is 2:3 or, in fraction form 2/3
That means x/y = 2/3
Cross multiply => 3x = 2y =>
3x - 2y = 0 [1]
10 years from now x would become x + 10 years, y would become y + 10 years and the new ratio is 4/5
So (x + 10)/(y+10 = 4/5
Cross-multiply
5(x + 10) = 4(y + 10)
5x + 50 = 4y + 40
Subtract 4y from both sides
5x + 50 -4y = 40
and subtract 50 from both sides:
5x - 4y = 40 - 50
5x -4y = -10 [2]
Eliminate y terms by multiplying [1] by 2 and subtracting [1] from that
[1] x 2
=> 2(3x - 2y) = 2 x 0
=> 6x - 4y = 0 [3]
[3] - [2]
6x - 4y - (5x -4y) = 0 - (-10)
6x - 4y -5x + 4y = 10
x = 10
Using equation [1] we get
x/y = 2/3
=> 10/y = 2/3
10 x 3/2 = y
5 x 3 = y
y = 15
So their ages are 10 and 15 now.
In 10 years they would be 20 and 25
If the ratios change we would have a different set of equations to solve for
For example if the current ratio is 1/3
Then we would get x/y = 1/3
or 3x - y = 0 [4]
and if 10 years from now the ratio is 3/5 then
(x + 10)/(y + 10) = 3/5
=> 5(x+10) = 3(y + 10)
=> 5x + 50 = 3y + 30
=> 5x - 3y = -20 [5]
And we would solve these equations to get x and y in a similar mannter
FYI the answers would be
x = 5, y = 15

Raise the product to the power (xy)^4
Explanation:
Each term inside is raised to the fourth power.
The rule is (ab)^c = a^c*b^c
An example:
(2*3)^4 = 6^4 = 1296
(2*3)^4 = 2^4*3^4 = 16*81 = 1296
Therefore, (2*3)^4 = 2^4*3^4

What is the slope of this line?
Answer:[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
you can take 2 points (for example (0,-3) and (3,-1)) and use rise over run ([tex]\frac{x_{2} -x_{1} }{y_{2}-y_{1} }[/tex]) to find the slope, and just plug them into rise over run
Triangle ABC is shown with exterior ∠z.
Determine m∠z.

Answer:
131°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two interior angles in a triangle is equal to an exterior angle that is supplementary to the third interior angle.
The value of z:
97 + 34 = z add numbers
131 = z
Sheldon can read 9 pages in 15 minutes. Betty can read 18 pages in 1 hour. Explain how you could use a table or graph to
find how much longer it would take Betty to read a 360-pageants book than Sheldon.
Make a table of
Betty hours longer to read the book.
First step, make ratios:
Pages: time
Sheldon: 9 pages: 15 minutes
Betty: 18 pages: 60 minutes (1 hour)
To find how long it would be for 360 you divide:
9/15 is 0.6 pages: 1 minute and 18/60 is 0.3 pages per minute
When you make the table here would be the equation:
y=.06x for Sheldon and y=.3 for betty (plug in times and create a table)

What is the scale factor between 4 cm and 10 cm ?
4 and 10 are divisible by 2
Length A : 4 ÷ 2 = 2
Length B : 10 ÷ 2 = 5
so the scale factor from A to B is 2:5
WORTH 50 POINTS!!!!!!!!!! a gardener made a scale drawing of a lawn with a scale factor of 1:15. the dimensions of his garden are 6 inches long by 3 inches wide. his partner plans to make another scale drawing of the lawn, but with a scale of 1:5
. what are the dimensions of his scale drawing?
Answer:
D. the length is 18 inches and the width is 9 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given information:
Scale = 1 : 15.Dimensions of the lawn in the scale drawing = 6 in × 3 in.Therefore, to find the actual dimensions of the lawn, multiply the given scale dimensions by 15:
⇒ Length = 6 × 15 = 90 in
⇒ Width = 3 × 15 = 45 in
If the gardener's partner plans to make another scale drawing of the lawn with a different scale of 1 : 5, to find the dimensions of his scale drawing, divide the actual dimensions by 5:
⇒ Length = 90 ÷ 5 = 18 in
⇒ Width = 45 ÷ 5 = 9 in
Therefore, the dimensions of his scale drawing are the length is 18 inches and the width is 9 inches.
An alternative way to approach this problem is to calculate the difference between the two scales. It is clear that the original scale of 1 : 15 is 3 times the new scale of 1 : 5. Therefore, simply multiply the original dimensions by 3 to find then new dimensions of the scale drawing with a scale of 1 :5.

ANWERS ASAP PLSSSS :) <3
Answer:top one is a
second one is c
nuber 3 is c
4 is b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. x >= 4
2. x /= -4
3. The first one
4. The second one
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Since the bolded arrow is pointing to numbers greater than 4, we can tell that x is greater than 4. The dot on the number 4 is colored, meaning that four is included, thus x is greater than or equal to 4.
2. Since the bolded areas are on every point on the graph except -4, we can tell that x is every number but -4, thus x is not equal to -4.
3. The sign "<" indicates that x is less than 3. This eliminates the second option. Since there is no equal to sign, the dot isn't colored, thus, the first one.
4. The sign "<=" indicates that x is less than or equal to -1, eliminating the third option. Since it is equal to, the dot should be colored, thus, the second one.

y=4x

Answer:
The slope is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Slope can also be found by using the formula, Y2-Y1/X2-X1
In this case, our first point is the origin, so x would be 0 and y would be 0. On the second point, our x is -1, and our y is -4.
So, we can make the solution, -4-0/-1-0.
You can simplify this into, -4/-1, and then into 4.
Therefore, the slope is 4.
Step 2:
M is our slope, so in our y=mx equation our m = 4.
If you substitute in the m, you get y=4x.
Answer:
y=4x.

Please help A-sap! Voting brainiliest for correct answer!
Answer: 10
Step-by-step explanation: The answer is 10 because xy means x times y, and since x = 10 and y = -2, 10 times -2 equals -20. Now you have to divide that by --2 which is just 2. So -20/2 equals -10. -10's absolute value is 10. Thus the answer is 10.

For this equation the easiest thing to start with ratios:
16:4 (scale of 4 due to 4 x 4 being = to 16)
For the y-2 to find y you first will put 8/4 (your scaling back), so 2 so 4-2 would be 2 which makes that equal to y.
Knowing that 8 is the size on the one side these are equal on the top so x-3 had to equal 8, so 11-3=8 so...
x=11
y=2
