found that Mr Han is 36 years older than her. 7 years later, Mr Han will be 3 times as old as her. How old is Mr Han now?

I think Mr. Han is around the 60 or 70 age.

I am really sorry that I couldn't answer this problem.  Try starting with 21 and multiply that by 3.  To check if you can do it, add 43 to the number you multiply 3 with.  Again, i am really sorry that i only wrote a hint.  Good luck finding the answer!

The initial temperature of a cup of tea is 200ºF. The surrounding temperature is 70ºF, and the value of the constant k is 0.6.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Newton's Law of Cooling states that the change of the temperature of an object is proportional to the difference between its own temperature and the ambient temperature over time.

Therefore when expressed mathematically, this is equivalent to:

dT = - k (T – Ts) dt

dT / (T – Ts) = - k dt

Integrating:

ln [(T2– Ts) / (T1– Ts)] = - k (t2 – t1)

Before we plug in the values, let us first convert the temperatures into absolute values R (rankine) by adding 460.

R = ˚F + 460

T1 = 200 + 460 = 660 R

Ts = 70 + 460 = 530 R

ln [(T2– 530) / (660 – 530)] = - 0.6 (2 - 0)

T2 = 569.16 R

T2 = 109 ºF

Answer: After 2 hours, it will be 109 ºF

Why can you use cross products to solve the proportion StartFraction 18 over 5 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 100 EndFractio
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

because 18 times 100 is equal to 5 times x, which means that x is equal to 360

Step-by-step explanation:

18/5=x/100

Cross product

18*100=5*x

1800=5x

x=1800/5

x=360

because 18 times 100 is equal to 5 times x, which means that x is equal to 360

Giselle wants to buy a condo that has a purchase price of $163,000. giselle earns $2,986 a month and wants to spend no more than
Alborosie
The condo costs $163,000, earns $2,986 per month, spends no more than 25% of her income, then if she pays $33,000 for the down payment, the remaining amount would be $130,000. Since 20% of the initial cost is only $32,600, she can adjust her down payment to 20.25% of the initial cost so that the annual payments would be less.

elijah's credit card statement showed these items: Last Balance Payments Finance Rate New Charges $152.58 $45.00 1.5% $213.40 Wh
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Option A,$320.98  is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The new balance on Elijah's credit is the sum of the last balance plus new charges minus payments made.

last balance as shown by the statement was $152.58

new charges were $213.40

payment made by Elijah was  $45

new balance=$152.58+$213.40-$45=$320.98

The rationale for this is that the new charges on the card account add to previous balance owed by Elijah while the payment of $45 made reduces overall balance.
