-2(a-8)+6a=36 \\ \\ -2a + 16 + 6a = 36 \\ \\ 4a + 16 = 36 \\ \\ 4a = 36 - 16 \\ \\ 4a = 20 \\ \\ a =  \frac{20}{4} \\ \\ a = 5 \\ \\

The final result is: a = 5.

For their twentieth wedding anniversary, Richard and Sylvia had a party for several of their best friends. Things were going alo
kompoz [17]

Answer:

Richard is older

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an inequality for both statements.

Let r equal Richard's age and s equal Sylvia's age.

"I am older than my wife."

Since Richard is speaking, the inequality would look like this:

r > s

This means Richard is older than Sylvia.

"I am younger than my husband."

Since Sylvia is speaking, the inequality would look like this:

s < r

This means that Sylvia is younger than Richard.

We can flip one inequality to "see" them from the same perspective.

Let's use s < r

To make it so that we can see the relationship from Richard's perspective, flip the entire inequality.

s < r

to

r > s

The inequality from the first quote is identical to this one!

Therefore, Richard is older than Sylvia.
