ALICE=X, HAN=36+X AFTER 7 YEARS ALICE= X+7, HAN=X+43 AFTER 7 YEARS, MR. HAN IS 36+X +7, AND HE IS 3X THE AGE OF ALICE, OR: X+43=3(X+7). SOLVING FOR X: X+43=3X+21 (DISTRIBUTE 3 TO X AND 7) FLIP FORMULA TO 3X+21=X+43 ADD -X-21 TO BOTH SIDES 2X=22 DIVIDE BOTH SIDES WITH 2 X=11 ALICE IS 11, MR. HAN IS 47 NOW AFTER 7 YEARS, ALICE IS 18 MR. HAN IS (47+7) 54 TO CHECK: 54 DIVIDED BY 3 = 18

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!

What is the value of the digit 6 in the number 48.061?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The hundredths place.

Step-by-step explanation:

48 is the whole number, and .061 is the decimals. As you probably know, this is the whole numbers place value.

ones, tens, hundreds, thousand, 10 thousand, 100 thousand, million...ect.

The decimal places are different

in this case the 0 is the tenths<u> </u>

the 6 is the hundredths

and the 1 is the thousandths.

Mostly, the decimal points are just with added ths to the end.

Hope this helped :D

A mail clerk found that the total weight of 155 packages was 815 pounds. if each of the packages weighed either 3 pounds or 8 po
8090 [49]
For this on you need to set up two equations
x + y = 155 total number of packages
3x+8y=815 total weight
Then multiply both sides of the first equation by 3: 3x +3y = 465
Then combine the two equations by subtracting the first one from the second one which gets you 5y=350 so y = 70 so we have 70 packages weighting 8 pounds.
