Pam is 3 years older than her sister, jan. the sum of their ages is 99. find their ages.

Pam is 51.

Jan is 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pam is 3 years older than Jan so her age is x + 3 where x is Jan's age. When we add Pam's age and Jan's age, the sum equals 99.

So x + x+3 = 99. Solve for x.

2x+3 = 99

2x=96

x= 48

So Jan is 48 years old. This means Pam is 51.

pam is 51 and jan is 48

Step-by-step explanation:

pam is x and jan is y

(x + 3) + y = 99

- 3 on both sides

x + y = 96

divide 96 by two

96/2 is 48

add 3 to 48 (pam’s age)

pam is 51 and jan is 48

f

step-by-step explanation:

f

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
