The ratio of Maggie's age now to her brother Steven's age now is 2:3. In ten years, the ratio of their ages will be 4:5. How old in Maggie now? Do not label years old in your answer.

Answer quick please! <3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

sorry if this is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

 Maggie = X

Brother = 2X-3 <--- 3 years younger than twice her age.

 

2x - 3 + x = 24  <--- the sum of their ages is 24

 

3x - 3 = 24

 

3x = 27

 

x = 9

 

Maggie is 9.

Brother is 2*9 - 3 = 18 - 3 = 15

Answer 2

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

1 number in the ratio is 5 years

The Farmers Market sells apples by the bushel, and each bushel of apples weighs 42 lbs. A bushel of large apples contains 84 apples. If a bushel of small apples contains twice as many apples as a bushel of large apples, how many small apples are in 1 lb. of small apples? It’s says show work

Answers

Answer:  4 apples in 1 lb

Step-by-step explanation:  There are twice as many small apples  as large apples, so multiply 2 × 84 = 168

to find apples per pound, divide the total number of apples, 168,  by the weight of the bushel: 42 lbs.

168 /42 = 4 apples/lb

The required number of small apples in one pound is 4.

Given that,
Each bushel of apples weighs 42 lbs. A bushel of large apples contains 84 apples. If a bushel of small apples contains twice as many apples as a bushel of large apples, how many small apples are in 1 lb. of small apples, is to be determined.

What is simplification?

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function or expression simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Here,
Large apples in 1 pound = 84 / 42 = 2
Now, according to the question,
Number of small apples = 2 (number of large apples)
Number of small apples = 2 (2)
Number of small apples = 4

Thus, the required number of small apples in one pound is 4.

Kate is going to the fair with three of her friends. It will cost $5.00 to get in and an additional $2 per ride. Create an equation to represent the cost for the whole group and then use the distributive property to expand the expression and solve the problem.
Expression: (4*5)+(2*5)=30
So I have the expression I just need to do the distributive property and I don't understand how to do that.

Answers

Answer:

5 * ( 4 + 2 ) = 5 * 6 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

(5*4) + (2*5) = 20 + 10 = 30

5*4 = 4 people need to pay $5

2*5 = $2 for 5 rides

Distributive Property:

(5*4) + (2*5) = 5 * ( 4 + 2 )

5 * ( 4 + 2 ) = 5 * 6 = 30

Answer:

$40

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so the distributive property allows us to apply a number evenly over a whole set of numbers.

Equation: 4 (2 x 5) (we distribute the 4 to all terms, since each person experiences those charges.) The answer is $40 for the whole group.
