Answer:

Maggie is 13 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maggie's age is: x

Maggie's brother's age is: 2x - 3

The sum of the ages = 36

x + 2x - 3 = 36

3x - 3 = 36

3x = 39

x = 13

Answer: Maggie is 13 years old.

a mountaineer climbed 1,000 feet at a rate of x feet per hour, he climbed and additional 5,000 feet at a different rate. this ra
marshall27 [118]

A mountaineer climbed 1000 feet at a rate of x feet/hour

 1000 = x ( t 1 )         eq1

  5000 = X ( t 2)        eq2     ( he climbed additional at different rate )

the rate was 10 feet / hour less than twice the first rate

 X   = 2x - 10             eq3

take eq1 and eq 2

( total time = t 1 +  t 2 =   T)

T = 1000/x  + 5000/X

but X = 2x-10

T = 1000/x   +  5000/( 2x -10)

T = 1000/x   +  5000/( 2(x-5))

T  = 1000/x   +    2500 /  (x-5)
