Define x :
--------------------------------------------------
Let Cheryl be x years old.
Cheryl = x
Lisa = x + 6
--------------------------------------------------
In two years time:
--------------------------------------------------
Cheryl = x + 2
Lisa = x + 8
--------------------------------------------------
Lisa will be twice as old as Cheryl :
--------------------------------------------------
x + 8 = 2(x + 2)
--------------------------------------------------
Solve x :
--------------------------------------------------
x + 8 = 2(x + 2)
x + 8 = 2x + 4
x = 4
--------------------------------------------------
Find their age :
--------------------------------------------------
Cheryl = x = 4
Lisa = x + 6 = 4 + 6 = 10
--------------------------------------------------
Answer: Lisa is 10 years old now.

Answer:
5.3 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Because CD corresponds to BC, the scale factor from triangle ABC to triangle CDE, is 7/8. Now, DE corresponds to AB, so to get DE, we must multiply the value of AB by 7/8. 6 times 7/8 is 5.25, and rounding to the nearest tenth of a foot, the value of DE is 5.3.

Step-by-step explanation:
|<-------------- 10 --------------------->|
S-------------------T--------------------U
X-6 2X - 8
FIND: ST
SOLUTION:
ST + TU = SU
x - 6 + 2x - 8 = 10
combine like terms:
3x - x = 10 + 8 + 6
x = 24/3
x = 8
plugin the value of x= 8 into the ST = x - 6
ST = x - 6
ST = 8 - 6
ST = 2
proof:
x - 6 + 2x - 8 = 10
8 - 6 + 2(8) - 8 = 10
10 = 10 ---OK
