common ratio = a4/a3 = a3/a2
8/a3 = a3/18
(a3)^2 = 8 * 18
(a3)^2 = 144
a3 = 12 or a3 = -12
common ratio = 8/12 or common ratio = 8/(-12)
common ratio = 2/3 or common ratio = -2/3
Answer: 12 or -12
Let F be the father's current age, and E be Evie's current age.
F = E + 36 this is the current relation between the ages
F + 3 = 5(E + 3) this the relationship in 3 year (hence the + 3)
Then solve by substituting one equation into another:
(E + 36) + 3 = 5(E + 3)
E + 39 = 5E + 15
24 = 4E
6 = E
Evie's current age is 6.
Area of a rectangle = W X L
Area of a rectangle = 5 X 2
Area of a rectangle = 10
Area of triangle 1= 1/2 X B X H
Area of triangle 1= 1/2 X 2 X 2
Area of triangle 1= 1/2 X 4
Area of triangle 1= 2
Area of triangle 2= 1/2 X B X H
Area of triangle 2= 1/2 X 7 X 4
Area of triangle 2= 1/2 X 28
Area of triangle 2= 14
Area of a rectangle + Area of triangle 1 + Area of triangle 2=
10 + 2 + 14 = 36
