Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the ages be r and m
<u>We have:</u>
<u>Substitute m in the second equation and solve for r:</u>
- m = 117 - r
- 5r = 9 + 3( 117 - r)
- 5r = 9 + 351 - 3r
- 5r + 3r = 360
- 8r = 360
- r = 360/8
- r = 45
<u>Then m is</u>
Answer:
b=9,a=12
Step-by-step explanation:
I solved by substitution:
b = 3/4a ---> plug this into the other equation
a + b = 21 is now a + 3/4a = 21
Reduce: 7/4a = 21
a = 12
Now solve for b:
b=3/4a is now b=3/4(12)
b=9
2m = 200cm
200cm-65m= 135cm
