1 cup is 8 fluid ounces.
1 cap is 6 oz, 2 caps is 12 oz, is that greater than 8 oz?  well, surely you'd know.
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
   3 years
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many age problems, you can reason it without equations. If Tom is 13 now, 2 years ago he was 11. If the total age of the two cats at that time was 15, then Tim was 15 -11 = 4. 
That means Tim is now 4+2 = 6, so will be 9 in 3 years.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If you want to write equations, there are several ways you can do it. We often like to use variables to represent the current age. We can assign ...
   x = Tim's current age; y = Tom's current age.
The sum of their ages 2 years ago was ...
   (x -2) +(y -2) = 15
Tom's current age is 13, so we have y=13. Using that in the equation gives ...
   x -2 +13 -2 = 15
   x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9, collect terms
That's Tim's current age, so Tim will be 9 years old in 3 years.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive interior angles between parallel lines are supplementary.
Let's start with x.
   (8x +40)° +(6x)° = 180°
   14x +40 = 180 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, collect terms
   14x = 140 . . . . . . . . . subtract 40
   x = 10 . . . . . . . . divide by 14
__
We can use the same approach for y:
   (7y)° +(3y -10)° = 180°
   10y = 190 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, add 10, collect terms
   y = 19 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10
