Let
x------> Cathy's<span> ages
</span>y------> Tony's ages
we know that
x+y=65-----> x=65-y-----> equation 1
y-8=(2/5)*(x-8)-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
y-8=(2/5)*(65-y-8)---> y-8=22.8-0.4y----> y+0.4y=22.8+8
1.4y=30.8-----> y=22
x=65-y-----> x=65-22----> x=43
the answer is
Cathy's ages is 43 years
Tony's ages is 22 years

Here is the answer to the equation. The photo below is the work shown.
x^2-3x-18
Answer:
Both are correct. Either rule applied first will have the same result. Both rules will be used either way, and the order in which they are applied does not matter as long as they are applied correctly at each step.
3x - 12
3(3x/3 - 12/3)
3(x - 4)
The answer is: 3(x - 4).
