In the visit to the Old Folks' Home last weekend, Alice spent time chatting with Mr Han and helping him with simple chores. She

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?

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!

The radius of a cylinder is 5" and the lateral area is 70 sq. in. Find the length of the altitude. 2.8" 7" 14"
algol13
The correct question is
<span>The radius of a cylinder is 5" and the lateral area is 70pi sq. in. Find the length of the altitude.
</span>
we know that

[surface lateral area]=(2*pi*r)*height
height= [surface lateral area]/(2*pi*r)
surface lateral area=70*pi in²
r=5 in 
so
height= [70*pi]/(2*pi*5)------> 7 in

the answer is
7 in

Which equation is y = 3(x – 2)2 – (x – 5)2 rewritten in vertex form? Y = 3 (x minus seven-halves) squared minus StartFraction 27
densk [106]

Answer: y = 2 (x minus one-half) squared minus StartFraction 27 Over 2 EndFraction

or

y=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2)-\dfrac{27}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form of equation : f (x) = a(x - h)^2 + k,where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

y=3(x-2)^2-(x-5)^2\\\\=3(x^2+4-4x)-(x^2+25-10x)\\\\=3x^2+12-12x-x^2-25+10x\\\\=2x^2-2x-13\\\\=2(x^2-x-\dfrac{13}{2})\\\\=2(x^2-x+\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{13}{2})\\\\=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2-\dfrac{1+26}{4})\\\\=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2-\dfrac{27}{4})=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2)-\dfrac{27}{2}

Hence, the vertex form of the equation is y=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2)-\dfrac{27}{2}
