Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Edith is x years old.
Her sister,Madison is six years older than her. This means that the age of Madison is x + 6
Their mother is twice as old as Madison. This means that the age of their mother is expressed as
2(x + 6)
= 2x + 12
Their aunt, Elizabeth is x years older than their mother. This means that the expression that represents Elizabeth's age in years is
2x + 12 + x
= 3x + 12
Answer:
15 minutes i think
Step-by-step explanation:
45÷6=7.5
meaning 7.5 minutes per girl
so 4 girls would be 30 minutes of work
so 45-30=15
9/10 - 5/10
because the denominators are the same you keep it and just subtract the numerators
=4/10
This can be reduced to 2/5
4x - 9 = 2x
Solve for x.
4x = 2x + 9
2x = 9
x = 4.5
We can plug 4.5 into the original equation to verify if it's correct.
4x - 9 = 2x
4(4.5) - 9 = 2(4.5)
18 - 9 = 9
The equation is true, and so x = 4.5
