Answer: The sum of their ages is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be translated to:

in 15 years from now, Jorge's age will be 2 times the age of Eduardo.

If 6 years ago the age of Jorge was the triple of the one of Eduardo.

Find the sum of their ages:

If E is Eduardo's age and J is Jorge's age, we have a system of equations:

J + 15 = 2(E + 15)

J - 6 = 3*E

The first step is isolating one of the variables in one of the equations, let's isolate J in the second equation:

J - 6 = 3E

J = 3E  +6

Now we can replace it in the first equation:

J + 15 = 2E

3E + 6 + 15 = 2E + 30

3E + 21 = 2E + 30

3E - 2E = 30 - 21 = 9

E = 9

Eduardo is 9 years old:

J = 3E + 6 = 3*9 + 6 = 27 + 6 = 33

Jorge is 33 years old.

then E + J = 33 + 9 = 42

The division of whole numbers is commutative. true or false?
AURORKA [14]
'Commutative' means you can work it in the other direction without changing it.
But 1/2 is not the same number as 2/1 . So I guess division is NOT commutative.

Answer: \frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the common denominator

The easiest way to do this is by multiplying the two given denominators, which are 2 and 5.

2 × 5 = 10

So, our common denominator is 10. Then, multiply the numerators of the two fractions by 2 and 5. Here's why:

\frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10}         We multiplied the top and bottom by 2 to make sure our new fraction stays equivalent to the original fraction.

Do the same thing for the other one:

\frac{1*5}{2*5} = \frac{5}{10}

Finally, subtract the two fractions to find the difference between the two times:

\frac{6}{10} -\frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{10}

The reason we used the common denominator is because we can only add or subtract fractions if they have the same denominator.
