Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−66.17738=6.618(4.3x+1.1)−7.1(x−6.8)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−66.17738=6.618(4.3x+1.1)−7.1(x−6.8)

−66.17738=(6.618)(4.3x)+(6.618)(1.1)+(−7.1)(x)+(−7.1)(−6.8)(Distribute)

−66.17738=28.4574x+7.2798+−7.1x+48.28

−66.17738=(28.4574x+−7.1x)+(7.2798+48.28)(Combine Like Terms)

−66.17738=21.3574x+55.5598

Step 2: Flip the equation.

21.3574x+55.5598=−66.17738

Step 3: Subtract 55.5598 from both sides.

21.3574x+55.5598−55.5598=−66.17738−55.5598

21.3574x=−121.73718

Step 4: Divide both sides by 21.3574.

21.3574x

21.3574

−121.73718

21.3574

x=−5.7

X= 3
Cancel 3 out by subtracting it by itself, then subtract 3 from 18 to get 15. Now that you have 5x= 15, just divide 15 by 5x to get x= 3

Consider two persons. The age of one persoon isestimated between 25 and 35. The age of the other person isestimated between 15 a

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Q1. The estimated sum of the two people are between 40 and 55 years old.

Q2. The first person is between 10 and 15 years older.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given Age Range's for 2 people. The first question is asking for the sum of the two people's ages. In this case we can just add the two minimum ages together and then the two maximum ages like so,

min: 25 + 15 = 40

max: 35 + 20 = 55

So the estimated sum of the two people are between 40 and 55 years old.

The second question asks how much older the First person is from the Second person. We can calculate this by subtracting both age ranges like so,

min: 25 - 15 = 10

max: 35 - 20 = 15

So the first person is between 10 and 15 years older.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
