First make an equation system for the problem
An equation for "<span>Jeanine is twice as old as her brother Marc" is
</span>⇒ j = 2m
An equation for "<span>the sum of their ages is 24" is
</span>⇒ j + m = 24
<span>
Second solve the equations with subtitution method.
Subtitute j with 2m in the second equation
j + m = 24
2m + m = 24
3m = 24
m = 24/3
 m = 8
Marc is 8 years old

Find Jeanine's age by subtitute m with 8 in the first equation
j = 2m
j = 2(8)
j = 16

Jeanine is 16 years old

I need a step by step explanation on how you solved the equation.
Ghella [55]

Answer: x=3 and y=−2

Step-by-step explanation:

x=−2y−1;4x−4y=20

Step: Solve x=−2y−1 for x:

Step: Substitute−2y−1 for x in 4x−4y=20:

4x−4y=20

4(−2y−1)−4y=20

−12y−4=20(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−12y−4+4=20+4(Add 4 to both sides)

−12y=24

−12y

−12

=

24

−12

(Divide both sides by -12)

y=−2

Step: Substitute−2 for y x=−2y−1:

x=−2y−1

x=(−2)(−2)−1

x=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Janine inflated a ball to a radius of 18 cm and another ball to a radius of 12 cm.
Sladkaya [172]
Volume of a ball = (4/3)πr³

When r = 18cm, V = (4/3)×3.14×18³ =24416.64 cm³
When r = 12cm, V = (4/3)×3.14×12³ =7234.56 cm³
 Difference = 24416.64 - 7234.56 = 17182.08 cm³

the volume of air in the larger ball is <span>17182.08 cm³ greater than smaller ball </span>
