--------------------------------------------------
Define x :
--------------------------------------------------
Let Cheryl be x years old.
Cheryl = x
Lisa = x + 6

--------------------------------------------------
In two years time:
--------------------------------------------------
Cheryl = x + 2
Lisa = x + 8

--------------------------------------------------
Lisa will be twice as old as Cheryl :
--------------------------------------------------
x + 8 = 2(x + 2)

--------------------------------------------------
Solve x :
--------------------------------------------------
x + 8 = 2(x + 2)
x + 8 = 2x + 4
x = 4

--------------------------------------------------
Find their age :
--------------------------------------------------
Cheryl = x = 4
Lisa = x + 6 = 4 + 6 = 10

--------------------------------------------------
Answer: Lisa is 10 years old now.

I had $80.45 in my bank account on Monday. I deposited $20.50 on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I then withdrew $37.25 on Fri
brilliants [131]

Answer:

$104.70

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation would be set up like this: 80.45 + 20.50(3) - 37.25. You started off with $80.45 in your bank account and deposited, or added, $20.50 every day on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. That would mean you added $20.50 three times. Adding $80.45 + $20.50 + $20.50 + $20.50, simplified to $80.45 + $20.50(3)  would get you $141.95 in total. Then, on Friday, you withdraw $37.25, getting the equation $141.95 - $37.25, leaving $104.70 for the weekend.
