Let's call the younger student's age A and the older student's age B. The teacher's age will be T.

B = 2A
T = 5B
T+5 = 5(A+5)

Simplify the last equation.

T+5 = 5A+25
T = 5A+20

Now we have two equations solved for T, so we can set them equal to each other.

5B = 5A + 20

We can plug 2A in for B

5(2A) = 5A + 20

10A = 5A + 20

5A = 20

A = 4

To find T, we plug 4 in for A in T = 5A + 20

T = 5(4) + 20

T = 40

The answer is 40 years old.

Solve the equation for x, where x is a real number (5 points): <br> -5x^2 + 7x + 41 = 32
wel
Subtract 32 to both sides to the equation becomes -5x^2 + 7x + 9 = 0.

To solve this equation, we can use the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                   x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                   x = [ -7 ± √(7^2 - 4(-5)(9)) ] / ( 2(-5) )
                   x = [ -7 ± √(49 - (-180) ) ] / ( -10 )
                   x = [ -7 ± √(229) ] / ( -10)
                   x = [ -7 ± sqrt(229) ] / ( -10 )
                   x = 7/10 ± -sqrt(229)/10
The answers are 7/10 + sqrt(229)/10 and 7/10 - sqrt(229)/10.
