Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Age problems can be solved by expressing the given relationships in math terms, then solving the resulting equation(s). Let J represent Judy's age now. Then Adami's age now is J/2. Six years ago, the relationship was ...
(J -6) = 5(J/2 -6)
J -6 = 2.5J -30
24 = 1.5J
16 = J
Judy is now 16 years old.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Adami is 8 now. 6 years ago, Judy was 10 and Adami was 2.
Here is an alternate approach. Let 'a' represent Adami's age 6 years ago. The relationship at present is ...
2(a+6) = 5a +6
6 = 3a . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 2a+6
2 = a ⇒ 5a+6 = 16
To solve this problem you can first set up an equation.
3m+m=24
<u>4</u>m=<u>24
</u>4 4
m=6

24-6=18 lions
Answer:
column 1, (2 and 2)
column 2, (8 and 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first one, y = 2. You would plug in 1 into x and since one times itself is one, you would end up with 2. For the next question, you would plug in one and find that two times one is two. For the next column, by plugging in 2, you would find that you would end up with 2 times 4 and thus, you would find the answer which is 8. Lastly, two to the power of two is 4. Hope this helped!
6 workers-9 jobs in 3 days
In one day 6 workers can do 3 jobs
In one day 1 worker can do 0.5 job
4 workers can so 2 jobs in a day
So. They can do 10 jobs in 5 days
