Answer: Angie = 6, Jemma = 18

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent the current age of Angie

              Current Age           Age 5 years from now

Angie:            x                              x + 5

Jemma:        3x                            3x + 5

5 years from now the sum of their ages is 34

                  (x + 5) + (3x + 5) = 34

                               4x + 10 = 34

                               4x        = 24

                                 x         = 6

Angle's current age is x = 6

Jemma's current age is 3x = 3(6) = 18

Answer: Angie is 6 years and Jemma is 18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jemma'a age be J and Angie's be A.

Then:

J = 3A .................................. Equation 1

Five years from now , Jemma will be J+5 years and Angie will be A+5 years.

That is :

J+5+A+5 = 34

Re arranging we have:

J +A+10 = 34

subtract 10 from both sides

J+A = 24............................ Equation 2

recall that  J=3A

Substitute  J = 3A  into equation 2 , then we have:

3A + A = 24

4A = 24

divide through by 4

A = 6

substitute A = 6 into equation 1 , we have

J = 3(6)

J = 18

Therefore :

Angie is 6 years and Jemma is 18 years

Revolution in Russia is the lession
atroni [7]

Answer: The answers are in the photo. (They are color-coded.)

Step-by-step explanation:

A monarchy, democracy, and communism are different ways to run a government.

A monarchy is usually ruled by someone of royalty, like a king or queen. Typically, they inherit all the power and get to make all the decisions, whether their people like it or not.

In a democracy, the people have many liberties and rights. They get to vote for candidates that represent them that could get elected as a president, minister, mayor, etc. Those elected have to listen to what their people want.

In communism, the government gets to make all the decisions whether it benefits the people or not. This is runned by a single-party, meaning no other parties are allowed to be developed or run.

A pair of skis was discounted 20%. How many percent will the discounted price have to be increased to return to the original pri
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of A pair of skis be $100

discount given on A pair of skis = 20% on original price

discount value of A pair of skis in $ = 20% * $100

                   =  (20 * 100)/100 = $20

discounted price of A pair of skis =  original price - discount = 100 -20 = $80

in order to increase discounted price to original price of $100

there must be increase of $20 to discounted price which is $80

percentage increase on discounted price   to return to the original price =

(increased \ amount / discounted \ price) * 100 \\=>( 20/80) * 100 =  25\\

therefore 25% must be increase on discounted price to return to the original price
