Answer:
The presents age of the mom is 42 years old, and of the son is 27 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
The mothers age is x.
The son's age is y.
12 years ago, a mother was twice as old as her son.
This means that:
[tex]x - 12 = 2(y - 12)[/tex]
[tex]x = 2y - 24 + 12[/tex]
[tex]x = 2y - 12[/tex]
Their present age are in the ratio of 14:9.
This means that:
[tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{14}{9}[/tex]
[tex]14y = 9x[/tex]
Since [tex]x = 2y - 12[/tex]
[tex]14y = 9(2y - 12)[/tex]
[tex]18y - 108 = 14y[/tex]
[tex]4y = 108[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{108}{4}[/tex]
[tex]y = 27[/tex]
[tex]x = 2*27 - 12 = 54 - 12 = 42[/tex]
The presents age of the mom is 42 years old, and of the son is 27 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:
a small woodcarving company mailed 190 advertisements, some requiring 33 cents in postage and other requiring 55 cents in postage. if the total cost for the mailings was $75.90, how many mailings that require 33 cent stamps were sent?
Answer:
The history of postal service of the United States began with the delivery of stampless letters, whose cost was borne by the receiving person, later also encompassed pre-paid letters carried by private mail carriers and provisional post offices, and culminated in a system of universal prepayment that required all letters to bear nationally issued adhesive postage stamps.[1]
Benjamin Franklin postage stamp of 1895
In the earliest days, ship captains arriving in port with stampless mail would advertise in the local newspaper names of those having mail and for them to come collect and pay for it, if not already paid for by the sender. Postal delivery in the United States was a matter of haphazard local organization until after the Revolutionary War, when eventually a national postal system was established.[2] Stampless letters, paid for by the receiver, and private postal systems, were gradually phased out after the introduction of adhesive postage stamps, first issued by the U.S. government post office July 1, 1847, in the denominations of five and ten cents, with the use of stamps made mandatory in 1855.
The issue and use of adhesive postage stamps continued during the 19th century primarily for first class mail. Each of these stamps generally bore the face or bust of an American president or another historically important statesman. However, once the Post Office realized during the 1890s that it could increase revenues by selling stamps as "collectibles," it began issuing commemorative stamps, first in connection with important national expositions, later for the anniversaries of significant American historical events. Continued technological innovation subsequently prompted the introduction of special stamps, such as those for use with airmail, zeppelin mail, registered mail, certified mail, and so on.[citation needed] Postage due stamps were issued for some time and were pasted by the post office to letters having insufficient postage with the postage due to be paid to the postal carrier at the receiving address.
Today, stamps issued by the post office are self-adhesive, and no longer require that the stamps be "licked" to activate the glue on their back. In many cases, post office clerks now use Postal Value Indicators (PVI), which are computer labels, instead of stamps.[citation needed]
Where for a century-and-a-half or so, stamps were almost invariably denominated with their values (5 cent, 10 cent, etc.) the United States post office now sells non-denominated "forever" stamps for use on first-class and international mail.[3] These stamps are still valid even if there is a rate increase. However, for other uses, adhesive stamps with denomination indicators are still available and sold.

Step-by-step explanation:
The Bayesian statistician Bruno de Finetti (1906–1985) began his 1973 book on probability theory with the declaration: "PROBABILITY DOES NOT EXIST." The capitals appeared in the original, so I imagine de Finetti wanted us to shout this statement. What he meant is that probability is a device for describing uncertainty from the perspective of an observer with limited knowledge; it has no objective reality. Discuss the globe tossing example from the chapter, in light of this statement. What does it mean to say "the probability of water is 0.7"?
Answer:
It means that if we select a random point around the globe, there is a 70% = 0.7 probability that it represents water.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
In this question:
We know, that the planet Earth is formed 70% by water, and the globe represents this. This means, as the statement says, the if we select a random point around the globe, there is a 70% = 0.7 probability that it represents water.

What is 8x times x?
Answer:
8x²
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever it's multiplication, you would count how many x's there are and raise the x to the power of the number of x's.
The multiplication of 8x and x is 8x^2.
When we have to do multiplication,
We have given 8x and x.
What is the meaning of multiplication?Multiplication is defined as calculating the result of repeated additions of two numbers.
you would count how many x's there are and
Raise the x to the power of the number of x's.
and that is
[tex]=8\times x\times x[/tex]
There are two x therefore we have
[tex]=8x^2[/tex]
Therefore the multiplication of 8x and x is 8x^2.

Answer:
h(x) = -x² + 11 x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:-
Given that the functions are
f(x) = 2 x² - 5x -3
g(x) = x² + 6x -1
h(x) = g(x) - f(x)
= x² + 6x -1 - (2 x² - 5x -3)
= - x² + 6 x +5x -1+3
= -x² + 11 x + 2
h(x) = -x² + 11 x + 2
Final answer:-
h(x) = -x² + 11 x + 2

it takes 30 kids 6 hours to build a man sized Sand Castle. how many kids were there if the same game took only two-and-a-half hours
Answer:
There were 72 kids there.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using proportions, by a rule of three.
The number of kids and time are inversely proportional, that is, if we increase the number of kids to build the castle, the time it takes will decrease. This means that to solve the rule of three, instead of applying cross multiplication, we apply line multiplication.
We have that:
30 kids - 6 hours
x kids - 2.5 hours.
Applying line multiplication
[tex]2.5x = 30*6[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{180}{2.5}[/tex]
[tex]x = 72[/tex]
There were 72 kids there.
