Let 1st number be = x
Thus second number = x - 4

Now

(x) + (x - 4) = 72
2x - 4 = 72
2x = 76
x = 38

1st number is 38 thus 2nd number is (38 - 4) = 34

4n+(2n-9)

4n+2n-9

6n-9 =the total age

6n=9

divide by 6 both sides.

n=9/6

n=1.5 years.

substitute the value of n in the age of the father and the daughter.

Age of father=4×1.5

The value of a book is $150 and decreases at a rate of 4% per year. Find the value of the book after 12 years
nevsk [136]
If it decreases at 4% every year, then its value becomes:

100% - 4% = 96% = 96/100 = 0.96

At the end of the 1 year its value becomes:  150*(0.96)

At the end of the 2 years its value becomes:  150*(0.96)*(0.96) = 150*(0.96)²

At the end of the 3 years its value becomes:  150*(0.96)*(0.96)*(0.96) = 150(0.96)³

So similarly at the end of 12 years, its value becomes 150*(0.96)¹²

=50*(0.96)¹²    simplify with calculator.

<span>≈ 91.91

Value at the end of 12 years becomes ≈ $</span><span>91.91

I hope this helps.
