Answer :Anita's age = 7 years
Basilio's age = 2.5 years
Step 1. Assign variables to Anita's and Basilio's ages.
Anita's age = A
Basilio's age = B
Step 2. Use the information given to form two equations.
Anita is 4-1/2 years older than Basilio
A = 4.5 + B
Three times Anita's age added to six times Basilio's age is 36
3A + 6B = 36
Step 3. Substitute the value of A from first equation in to the second equation and solve for B
3(4.5 + B) + 6B = 36
13.5 + 3B + 6B = 36
13.5 + 9B = 36
9B = 36 - 13.5
9B = 22.5
B = 22.5/9 = 2.5
Step 4. Find the value of A
A = 4.5 + 2.5 = 7
Answer:
Anita's age = 7 years
Basilio's age = 2.5 years
22 just kidding........ 16
First how much turkey- 21 lbs or pounds.
