Answer:
Hulian's age is 7.
Thomas's age is 22.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Hulian = h
Let Thomas = t
Set the system of equation:
h = t - 15
h + t = 29
Plug in t - 15 for h in the second equation:
(t - 15) + t = 29
Simplify. Combine like terms:
2t - 15 = 29
Isolate the variable, t. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, add 15 to both sides:
2t - 15 (+15) = 29 (+15)
2t = 44
Divide 2 from both sides:
(2t)/2 = (44)2
t = 44/2
t = 22
Plug in 22 for t in one of the equations:
h = t - 15
h = 22 - 15
h = 7
Hulian's age is 7.
Thomas's age is 22.

The answer is 3 for this question.
300% if 5 is 15. 30% of 5 is 1.5 not 15. That is an error. Hope this helps!
Answer:
a. M=20A
b. k=20
c. $1200
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Direct proportions
</u>
Two variables are proportional if one of them is the other by a real number. That real number is called the Constant of proportionality. If x and y are proportional, then
y=kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.
The question describes the relationship between the amount of money raised at a charity fundraiser and the number of attendees. If they have five attendees, they raise $100
a.
Let's call A the number of attendees and M the amount of money raised, and
M=kA
We know that M=100 when A=5, so
100=k(5)
This means that
k=20
The equation for the amount raised at the charity event is
M=20A
b.
The constant of variation is k=20
c. If there are 60 attendees (A=60), then
M=(20)(60)=$1200
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
We'll call our weeks w and call our total savings s.
We have an initial $85 and then we add 7 every week. This means that we will be adding 7 for every week, so we will put this in our equation as 7w.
Therefore, our equation would be s=7w+85
Now, we plug in 8 for our w value to see how much money she will have after 8 weeks.
s=7(8)+85
s=56+85
s=141
Therefore, Aubrey will have saved $141 after 8 weeks.
I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D
