Let denote Pat's age with P and Zach's age with Z.
We know the following facts:
<span>1.Pat is six years older than twice his Cousin Zach’s age. We can rewrite this statement as:
P=2*Z+6
</span><span>2. The sum of their ages is less than 36.
P+Z<36
In order to find the greatest age that Zach could be we should find for which Z 
P+Z=35 (the first whole number smaller than 36) 
P=35-Z
35-Z=2*Z+6
35-6=3Z
29=3Z
Z=29/3
Z=9</span>

P = Pat
C = Cousin Zach

2C + 6 = P
2C + 6 - 6= P - 6
2C = P - 6
2C/2 = P - 6/2
C = P - 3
C + 3 = P
so (C + 3) + P < 36
 (C + 3 - 3) + P < 36 - 3
C + P < 33

I have hard prolems on subtract 4.000 -6.000
anyanavicka [17]
6.000 - 4.000 = 2.000

It is a very simple equation. The easiest way to remember it would be to look at the first two numbers. 6 subtract 4 equals 2. So when you see this equation, simply for starters do 6 subtract 4, which equals 2, and then add a decimal place and the 3 zeros at the end. Does that make sense? Please let me know whether this was useful to you or not, and if you have any further questions please feel free to ask so on comments. Thank you!

Which expression finds the measure of an angle that is coterminal with a 126° angle?
N76 [4]
The expression that gives an angle that is coterminal with 126 is 126 + 720n. Two angles are said to be coterminal if when they are drawn in a standard position, their terminal sides are on the same location. The expression will give an angle which when it is drawn the terminal sides are on the same location with the 126 angle.
