The first thing we will do for this case is to define the following variable:
x = real number.
We then have the following sentence:
"Five more than the product of a number and 9 is equal to 6"
The equation sought is:
9x + 5 = 6
Answer:
An equation for the sentence is:
9x + 5 = 6
Answer:
5 yr and 39 yr
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the age of the younger
then 7x + 4 = the age of the older
Now x + 7x + 4 = 44
8x + 4 = 44
8x = 40
x = 5
7x + 4 = 7(5) + 4 = 35 + 4 = 39
Check: 5 + 39 = 44
