Answer:
Monica's age = 34 years
Her daughter's age = 10 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Monica's age = x
Let her daughter'sage = y
x + y = 44 -------> equ 1
After 2 years:
Monica's age = x + 2
Her daughter's age = y + 2
x + 2 = 3 * (y+2)
x + 2 = 3y + 6
x = 3y + 6 -2
x = 3y + 4
Put x value in equ 1:
3y + 4 + y = 44
4y = 44 - 4
4y = 40
y = 40/4
y = 10
x = 44 -10
x = 34

use Pythagorean Theorem to satisfy...a^2 + b^2 = c^2
200^2 + b^2 = 300^2
b^2 = 300^2 - 200^2
b^2 = 50000 (get square root of each)
b = 223.606 (rounded to the nearest tenth.... = 223.6
First ask yourselfhat needs to be dristributed.
That would be -1 (x-9)
To distribute you have to multiply the number out side of the parentheses (-1) by each term inside the parentheses( x and -9)
-1×x=-x
-1×-9=9
Now the expression is
-x+9+4x
To simplify you have to combine like terms (4x and-x)
4x-x=3x
Your answer is 9+3x or 3(3+x).
