Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we are going to make an age table:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya
Elliot
Filling the in the Age Now column comes from the first sentence. If Elliot is 2 times Tanya's age and we don't know Tanya's age, then Tanya's age is x and Elliot's age is 2x:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya x
Elliot 2x
Filling in the Age 10 years ago column simply requires that we take their ages in the Age Now column and subtract 10 from each age:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya x x - 10
Elliot 2x 2x - 10
Since the question is How old is Elliot now based on the fact that 10 years ago....blah, blah, blah, we are using the ages in the 10 years ago column to write our equation. It says:
10 years ago, Elliot was 4 times as old as Tanya. Translated into mathspeak:
2x - 10 = 4(x - 10) and
2x - 10 = 4x - 40 and
-2x = -30 so
x = 15. That means that Elliot is 30 and Tanya is 15
Answer:
Y = A/X
Step-by-step explanation:
divide x from xy, balance the equation by dividing x from a.
Answer:
Correct choice is (C).
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression is
.
Now we need to simplify that then select the correct difference value from the given choices.

negative times negative is positive

Combine like terms because variable z has same exponent.


Hence correct choice is (C).
.
I really don't know what you mean, but to find the percent, multiply x and y and then divide your answer by 100, or move your decimal place to the left twice. hope that helped :)
