X=Tom´s age
y=Tim´s age.
we suggest this system of equations: 

x+y=21
(x+3)=2(y+3)

We solve this system of equations by susbstitution method.
x=21-y
[(21-y)+3]=2(y+3)
24-y=2y+6
-y-2y=6-24
-3y=-18
y=-18/-3=6

x=21-y
x=21-6=15.

Answer: Tom is 15 years old, and Tim is 6 years old.

Answer: The 80ml is the best deal

Step-by-step explanation:

Bc the half price of 45 is 22.5 so 45 + 22.5 equals $67.50 and the 80ml would equal 55.

Therefore the 80ml one is cheaper than the 50ml

Which is SMALLER, -6.3 or -6.1?
Dominik [7]
I believe the answer is -6.3

my explanation is because -6.3 is less than -6.1 so technically it makes it smaller. if you were to add to -6.3 you would get -6.1 on the x axis.
