Answer:

Her age is 40 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jerry's age be represented as j

Let Marjorie's age be denoted as m

The first part of the question states:

j = 4 + m/2

For the second equation:

m = 3j - 32

Multiply the first equation by 2 to get:

2j = 8 + m

Leading to m = 2j - 8

Set both equations for m equal to each other:

2j - 8 = 3j - 32

By simplifying, we get:

3j - 2j = 32 - 8

Therefore, j = 24

Now substituting back:

m = 2j - 8

m = 2(24) - 8

Thus, m = 48 - 8

Final result: m = 40

AnnZ [12381]

If $24 is the price for the 5 used CDs, then your formula would be "24+5x" where x represents the count of additional CDs you buy.

24+5(6-5)

24+5(1)

24+5

=29


Thus, acquiring 6 CDs would cost $29


I hope that’s accurate, good luck^^

Which property does each equation demonstrate? x2 + 2x = 2x + x2 (3z4 + 2z3) – (2z4 + z3) = z4 + z3 (2x2 + 7x) + (2y2 + 6y) = (2
babunello [11817]

Response:

1. Closure

2. Distributive

3. Closure

Detailed explanation:

In this scenario, we are examining the properties that each equation demonstrates.

The first equation shows the closure property.

This indicates that whether we add in one direction or the other, the result remains unchanged. Therefore, we conclude that addition conforms to the closure property in this case.

The third equation also shows the closure property. Regardless of how we approach the addition for this equation, the outcome remains consistent.

The second equation displays the distributive property.

Each element within the parentheses is multiplied by the negative sign before we proceed with further calculations.

PIT_PIT [12445]
The initial time was 15.7 minutes.

Explanation of steps:

Let x represent the initial time (in minutes).

The relay team is working on minimizing their relay race duration.

First, they cut down their time by 2.1 minutes.

Afterwards, they manage to reduce that time by 10 percent.

If the concluding time ends up being 3.96 minutes, then

x-t1-t2= 3.6
x= 3.6+ t1+ t2
x= 3.6+ 2.1+ 10
x= 15.7

Thus, their starting time was 15.7 minutes.

in a ceremony out of 800 participants 620 drink milk 350 drank tea and 50 did not drink both. find out how many people drank the
Leona [12618]
220: goodnight, mark me brainliest Explanation: Let M symbolize the count of people who drank milk, while T denotes those who consumed tea. Let x indicate the number who had both milk and tea. Consequently, the count of individuals who drank only milk is represented by n(M ∩ T') = 620 - x, and those who drank only tea is n(M' ∩ T) = 350 - x. Since 800 individuals took part, we have: 620 - x + (350 - x) + x + 50 = 800, simplifying to 1020 - x = 800. Therefore, x = 220. Thus, 220 individuals consumed both beverages.
