Answer: 2x-3=15
2(9)-3=15
18-3=15
6=1-2n+5
Above is the equation.
Combine like terms
6=-2n+6
Subtract 6 from both sides
0=-2n
Divide by -2
0=n

Answer:
Laura is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
let Laura's age now be x then Daniel's age is 2x
4years ago
Laura was x - 4 and Daniel 2x - 4, thus
2x - 4 = 3(x - 4) ← 3 times Laura's age
2x - 4 = 3x - 12 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
- 4 = x - 12 ( add 12 to both sides )
8 = x
Thus Laura is 8 years old
