Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, you either need x or y. So x or y can be the missing values. The most you can do is simply move one of the terms to the other side.
Regular= 3/5 equivalent= 6/10 just multiply the top and bottom by the same number.
It’s a infinite because do fist 2•3x= 6x then 2•1=2 then look 6x+2=6x+2
5 * 6 = 30
90/3 = 30
5 * 6 = 90/3 = 30
It will take 6 years for that to happen.
You can find this by setting Nichole's age as x and Sophie's age as x + 28 since she will always be 28 years older.
Now we are looking for a time that Sophie's age is equal to 2 less than 6 times Nichole's age. So we can set up the below equation.
6(x) - 2 = x + 28
6x - 2 = x + 28
5x - 2 = 28
5x = 30
x = 6
This let's us know that it needs to be when Nichole is 6, which is 6 years in the future.
