Answer to Q90

Sally is 54 years old and her mother is 80, how many years ago was Sally's mother three times her age?

Let Sally's age be x
Let her mother's age be y

Now, x = 54 and y = 80
So, y - x = 26 (the mother will always be 26 years older than Sally at all time)

But there was a time when the mother's age was three times Sally's age.
So at that time: y = 3x - - eq i
But remember: y - x = 26 - - eq ii

From eq ii
y = 26 + x - - eq iii

Putting eq iii into eq i
26 + x = 3x
26 = 3x - x
26 = 2x
x = 26 ÷ 2
x = 13

So, when Sally was 13 her mother was 3 x 13 = 39. And to check, is 39 - 13, 26? Yes, so we are good.

But here is the tricky part, the question asked for how many years ago that scenario was not Sally's age at that time.

Sally is now 54 and the scenario was when she was 13, so that was 54 - 13 years ago

Answer: 41

That strategy is the acquisition of a value-priced company by a growth company. Using the growth company's higher-priced stock for the acquisition can produce outsized revenue and earnings growth. Even better is the use of cash, particularly in a growth period when financial aggressiveness is accepted and even positively viewed.he key public rationale behind this strategy is synergy - the 1+1=3 view. In many cases, synergy does occur and is valuable. However, in other cases, particularly as the strategy gains popularity, it doesn't. Joining two different organizations, workforces and cultures is a challenge. Simply putting two separate organizations together necessarily creates disruptions and conflicts that can undermine both operations.

NEWS: Telegram supports Facetime video calls NOW!

Secure video calling is in high demand. As an alternative to Zoom, many people are using end-to-end encrypted apps such as WhatsApp, FaceTime or Signal to speak to friends and family face-to-face since coronavirus lockdowns started to take place across the world. There’s another option—secure communications app Telegram just added video calling to its feature set, available on both iOS and Android.
