<span>erry starts rowing at 2 pm from the west end of the lake, and Tao starts rowing from the east end of the lake at 2:05 pm. 
------
Terry DATA:
rate = 60 meter/min ; time = x min ; distance = r*t = 60x meters
-----
Tao DATA:
rate = 40 meter/min ; time = x-5 min ; distance = r*t = 40(x-5) meters
--------------------------
If they always row directly towards each other at what time will the two meet?

------
Equation:
dist + dist = 2000 meters
60x + 40(x-5) = 2000
20x = 1800
x = 90 minutes

Fifteen more than twice the hours Carla worked last week is the same as three times the hours she worked this week decreased by
lapo4ka [179]
2x-15=3(x-15) 
2x-15=3x-45
2x+30=3x
30=x

Let's check this work!

2(30)-15=3(30-15)
60-15=3(15)
45=45

She worked 45 hours each week

 *the reason it is 2x-15 and not 15+2x is because "more than" is considered a "turn around word" meaning it is the opposite

Let A = Aaron's age today and M = Maria's age today.
kondor19780726 [428]

Aaron is 4 years and Maria is 14 years old.

A = Aaron's age today

M = Maria's age today.

a. The equation based on the statement given will be:

M = A + 10

b. Maria's age based on the statement in 6 years will be:

= (A + 10) + 6

= A + 16

c. Based on the information above, the equation to solve their ages will be:

A + 16 = 2(A + 6)

A + 16 = 2A + 12

Collect like terms

2A - A = 16 - 12

A = 4

Therefore, Aaron is 4 and Maria is 14 years.
