Hello there!
J = Jason
S = Shauna
You can use the equation :
(J+4)+(S+4)=56 
4s + 8 = 56
4s = 56
s = 12
J=36In 4 years Jason is 40 and Shauna is 16.
Hope this helps! :D

Five less than the area of a square is 59 square feet. Find the side length of the square.​
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side length of the square be x feet.

x^2 - 5 = 59

x^2 = 64

x = ±4 (reject - 4 since length > 0)

If -2 is added to a number and the sum is doubled, the result is -15 less than the number.
VMariaS [17]

The required number is 19 given that -2 is added to a number, the sum is doubled and the result is -15 less than the number. This can be obtained by assuming the number as x, converting the given conditions to algebraic expression, forming algebraic equation and solving for x.

<h3>Find the required number:</h3>

Here in the question it is given that,

  • -2 is added to a number
  • The sum is doubled
  • The result is -15 less than the number

We have to find the required number.

Let the required number be x.

⇒ -2 is added to the number ⇒ -2 + x

⇒ the sum is doubled ⇒ 2(-2 + x)

⇒ the result is -15 less than the number ⇒ 2(-2 + x) = x -(-15)

2(-2 + x) = x + 15

⇒ - 4 + 2x = x + 15

⇒ x = 19

Hence the required number is 19 given that -2 is added to a number, the sum is doubled and the result is -15 less than the number.
