<span>4x - 6 = x + 3

Subtract x from each side
</span><span><span><span><span>4x</span>−6</span>−x</span>=<span><span>x+3</span>−<span>x
<span><span><span>3x</span>−6</span>=<span>3
</span></span>
Add 6 to each side
<span><span><span><span>3x</span>−6</span>+6</span>=<span>3+<span>6
<span><span>3x</span>=<span>9

Divide each side by 3
3x ÷ 3 = 9 ÷ 3
x = 3
============================================================
Checking work....

Substitute 3 for x in the equation and solve
<span>4(3)- 6 = (3) + 3
12 - 6 = 3 + 3
6 = 6
This is true, so 3 is x</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>

Select the correct answer. The sum of Sally and Beth's age is 60. Six years ago, Sally was 3 times as old as Beth. What are thei
erastova [34]

Answer:

B. Beth's age is 18 years, and Sally's age is 42 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this question in a couple of different ways. First, you can use process of elimination. You know that Sally is older than Beth because she has to be 3 times older 6 years ago, so you can get rid of options C and D because they both show Beth as being older. Now you only have A and B, and you can use a different process. Now from just looking at it, you can tell that A actually already shows Sally as 3 times Beth's age, 15 * 3 = 45. If you go to B, you can go ahead and subtract 6 from 18 (Beth's age) which will give you 12, and then multiply that by 3 to get 36. Now if you take 42 (Sally's age) and subtract 6 from it as well, you will get 36. This means that is lines up. To simplify, you are subtracting 6 from both 18 and 42, and then you are multiplying the lower number by 3 to see if it gets to the bigger number.

Hope this helped ^-^
