Do 12x+20=40x-8 and solve for x

First, find out the value of x to confirm if they are really true. 

We know that all the interior angles of a triangle equal to 180 degrees. 

4x+5x-8+3x+20=180 
12x=180-12 
12x=168
x=168/12 
x=14 

Put in these values of to find if AB=AC. 

(4×14)(3×14+20)=(4×14)(5×14-8) 

Solve for LHS first, 

(4×14)(3×14+20) = 56×62 

=3472 

Solve for RHS next, 

(4×14)(5×14-8) = 56×62

=3472

Since LHS=RHS, AB is also equal to AC. 

Hope I helped :)

3. Three years ago, Jane was three times as old as Alice. In two years time, the sum of their ages will be 62. Determine their p
anzhelika [568]
3 yrs ago:

Alice - x 
Jane - 3x 

Fast forward 2 years... 1 year ago: 

Sum of their ages = 62


Equation to solve: x + 3x = 62 
                                4x = 62 
                               -----  -----
                                 4      4
 
                                 x = 15.5 

From this, we can deterime that Alice is 15 1/2 years old. 

Then, plug in 15.5 for x in 3x to find Jane's age. 

15.5 × 3 = 46.5

From this, we can determine that Jane is 46 1/2 years old. 


I hope this helps you to understand this problem better.
