Answer:
Tanya is 20 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Vera = x years
The age of Linda is twice the age of Vera = 2x years
Tanya is four less than four times the age of Linda = 4(2x)-4 = 8x-4
Total age of Vera, Linda and Tanya is:
x+2x+8x-4
Combine the like terms:
11x-4
But now their total age is two more than nine times the age of Vera:
11x-4 = 9x+2
Solve the expression
Combine the like terms:
11x-9x=2+4
2x=6
Divide both the sides by 2
2x/2 = 6/2
x= 3
Thus the age of Vera is 3 years.
The age of Linda is 2x= 2*3 = 6 years
The age of Tanya is 8x-4 = 8*3 - 4 = 24-4 = 20years....
John is correct because between the time and distance, you divide by 9 to get the distance or multiply by 9 to get the time.
