Question

Victoria is 4 years older than her neighbor. the sum of their ages is no more than 14 years. 1. enter an inequality that can be used to represent this situation in the first box, where x represents victoria's neighbor's age. 2. enter the oldest age victoria's neighbor in the second box.

Answer 1

V = x + 4
x = neighbors age

x + x + 4 < = 14...here is the inequality
2x + 4 < = 14.....this is just a simplified form of the inequality
not sure which one u want to write, because they are both basically the same...one is just simplified a little

2x + 4 < = 14
2x < = 14 - 4
2x < = 10
x < = 10/2
x < = 5.....the oldest age of the neighbor is 5
