Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = Alvin's age

and E = Elga's age

We have two conditions:

(1) A = E – 15

(2) A + E = 35 Substitute (1) into (2)

E – 15 + E = 35 Combine like terms

2E – 15 = 35 Add 15 to each side

2E = 50 Divide each side by 2

E = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

$146 + 8 \frac{1}{5} \\ \\ = 146 + \frac{8 \times 5 + 1}{5} \\ \\ = \frac{146 \times 5 + 40 + 1}{5} \\ \\ = \frac{730 + 41}{5} \\ \\ = \frac{771}{5} \\ \\ = 154 \frac{1}{5} \\ \\ thus \\ \\ \huge \orange{ \boxed{146 + 8 \frac{1}{5} = 154 \frac{1}{5}}}$
