No because
15b + 4 = 25.6
15b = 21.6
b = 1.44
0.6+15b+4 = 25.6
4.6 + 15b = 25.6
15b = 21
b = 1.4
The answers are not the same therefore they are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Age of Mel is 25 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,the sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age.
Let 'x' be the Ali's age and 'y' be the Mel's age
<u>To find the value of x and y</u>
sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39
⇒ x + y = 39 ------(1)
Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age
⇒ y = 2x - 3 -------(2)
⇒ 2x - y = 3 -----(3)
(1) + (3) ⇒
x + y = 39
2x - y = 3
----------------
3x = 42
x = 42/3 = 14
y = 2x - 3 = 14*2 - 3 = 25
Therefore the age of Ali = 14
Age of Mel = 25
