Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let m = Matt's age

let a = Andy's

:

Write an equation for each statement

:

Matt is four years younger than twice his cousin Andy’s age.

m = 2a - 4

The sum of their ages is greater than 35.

m + a > 35

What is the youngest age that Andy can be?

replace m with (2a-4) from the 1st statement

2a - 4 + a > 35

3a > 35 + 4

a > 39/3

a > 13

least integer has to be a = 14

:

:

Check, find m

m = 2(14) - 4

m = 24

24 + 14 = 38 greater than 35

If a = 13

m = 2(13) - 4

m = 22

22 + 13 = 35 which is not greater than 35

greg invested $20 and qudrupled his money in five years.sabrena also invested $20 and after five years the amount was eqaul to 2
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The money of Greg after five years is $80

The money of Sabrena after five years is $160,000

So,The money of Sabrena is more than Greg after five years .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Greg invested $20 and quadrupled his money in five years

Let the quadrupled money after five years = $x

∵ quadrupled means the money becomes 4 times of previous

So, x = $20 × 4

i.e x = $80

So, The money of Greg after five years is $80

Again

Sabrena invested $20 and after five years money becomes 20 to the fourth power

Let the money after 20 to the fourth power = $y

So, y = 20^{4}

i.e y = 160,000

So, The money of Sabrena after five years is $160,000

∵ Sabrena money is more than Greg money

Hence, The money of Sabrena is more after five years . Answer
