Add them together then subtract 10 then divide by 8%
Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.
X+y=38 that’s your answer
Answer:subtraction property
Step-by-step explanation:
Two a negative and a negative makes a positive so it would be x+6=18 so u do the opposite on both sides so it would be subtraction
