To find how much older Leo is than John, we need to first assign our variables. In this case, let's say that x = Leo, y = Karla, and z = John. Now, let us turn words into numbers.
x = 2y
z = y - 7 
Next, we need to create an equation for their combined ages. This is what the equation should look like:
x + y + z = 37
Now, just substitute the expressions we found for x and z. This is what we get:
2y + y + (y - 7) = 37
Solve for y:
2y + y + y - 7 = 37
4y - 7 = 37
4y = 44
y = 11
So now we have the value for y, which is Kayla's age. Therefore, just substitute the value for y back into the equations for x and z.
x = 2(y) => x = 2(11) => x = 22
z = y - 7 => z = 11 - 7 => z = 4
Now that we have the values for x, y, and z, all we need to do now is reassign them back to their respective names. Our final answer will be: John is 18 years older than Leo. The answer to your query would be E) 18. Hope this helps and have a nice day!

Which values of x are solutions to the inequality?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

B. x=-210

D. x=-201

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The inequality for 'x' is given as:

x

The above inequality tells us that, the value of the variable 'x' is less than -200.

-200 is a negative number. So, for a negative number, the larger the value of the number, the smaller the number is.

Example: -2 is less than -1 although 2 has a greater magnitude than 1.

Therefore, the numbers that are less than -200 are -210 and -201.

So, the values of 'x' that satisfy the given inequality are -201 and -210

Thus, the correct options are (B) and (D).

For which values of a the system has at least one solution: x≤7 x≥a urgent pls help now
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

We have the system:

x ≤ 7

x ≥ a

Now we want to find the possible values of a such that the system has, at least, one solution.

First, we should look at the value of a where the system has only one solution:

We can write the 2 sets as:

a ≤ x

x ≥ 7

So, writing both together:

a ≤ x ≤ 7

if a is larger than 7, we do not have solutions.

then a = 7 gives:

7 ≤ x ≤ 7

Here the only solution is 7.

Now, if a is smaller than 7, for example 5, we have:

5 ≤ x ≤ 7

Now x can take different values, so we have a lot of solutions.

Then the restrictions for a, such that the system has at least one solution, is:

a ≤ 7.
