Answer:
I think like expressions you use x or y or such many variables. you use - or + too. like (x+2)y there are parentheses too.
Represent Age of Time Traveler =========> X
Solve:
x = 3(x - 20 )
Step 1: Simplify Both sides of equation:
x = 3(x - 20 )
x = (3) (x) + (3) ( - 20 ) (Distribute ):
x = 3x + - 60
x = 3x - 60
Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides:
x - 3x = 3x - 60 - 3x
- 2x = - 60
Step 3: Divide both sides by -2:
- 2x / - 2 = - 60 / - 2
x = 30
