Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
a. how old is Cheryl?
Cheryl's age = d + 5
b. how old is Brandon?
d + 5 + 2
= d + 7
c. what was the difference in their ages 5 years ago?
Cheryl age five years ago = d
Brandon's age five years ago = d + 2
Difference = d + 2 - d = 2 years
d. what is the sum of their ages now?
Cheryl's age = d + 5
Brandon age = d + 7
Sum = d + 5 + d + 7
= 2d + 12
e. what will the sum of their ages be two years from now?
Two years from now,
Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7
Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9
Sum = d + 7 + d + 9
= 2d + 16
f. what will the difference of their ages be two years from now
Two years from now,
Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7
Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9
Difference = Brandon age - Cheryl age
= (d + 9) - (d + 7)
= 2 years.
Answer: 5x - 14
Step-by-step explanation: Combine like terms 4x + x - 14 and turn it into 5x - 14
Answer: (x,y) = (-1, 1)
This means that x = -1 and y = 1
========================================================
Explanation:
The first equation says that y is the same as 2x+3
That allows us to substitute y for 2x+3 in the second equation like so:
2x+5y = 3
2x+5( y ) = 3
2x + 5(2x+3) = 3 .... y replaced with 2x+3
2x+10x+15 = 3
12x+15 = 3
12x = 3-15
12x = -12
x = -12/12
x = -1
Then we'll substitute this into the first equation to find y
y = 2x+3
y = 2(-1) + 3 .... x replaced with -1
y = -2+3
y = 1
Together x = -1 and y = 1 pair up to form the ordered pair solution (x,y) = (-1,1)
If you were to graph y = 2x+3 and 2x+5y=3 on the same xy grid, then you should see that the two lines intersect at the location (-1,1). This is a visual way to determine the solution quickly through use of a graphing calculator.

Answer:
y = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
-3y+12 = -48 . -12 from both sides
-3y = -60 . ÷3 on both sides
y = 20
