--------------------------------------------------
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.

25 – 4.33<br>7 + (1 - 100)​
Sidana [21]

Answer:

25 – 4.33 = 20.67

7 + (1 - 100)​ = -92

Step-by-step explanation:

First one) Simply use your knowledge of integers and decimals to solve this. You can even start by drawing a number line and practising with that before beginning to do harder problems.

Second one) Just like the first one but use PEDMAS, BEDMAS or BODMAS and make sure to solve the brackets first.
