<h3>
Answer: 15 years old</h3>
=============================================
Explanation:
m = Maggie's age (some positive whole number)
4m = four times her age
4m-7 = seven years younger than 4m = brother's age
Add up her age (m) and her brother's age (4m-7) to get a sum of 68.
m+(4m-7) = 68
5m-7 = 68
5m = 68+7
5m = 75
m = 75/5
m = 15
Maggie is currently 15 years old.
Her brother is currently 4m-7 = 4*15-7 = 60-7 = 53 years old.
Their current year ages add to: 15+53 = 68 which confirms the answer.
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
log 1/3 27= 1/3^x=27 this means we have to simplify it. 1/3= 3^-1 power. Thus, (3^-1)^x=3^3. This is equal to 3^-x=3^3 therefore x=-3
