Answer: Tom's age is 40 and Bob's age is 38.

To answer this problem, you must write the 2 equations given in the directions. 

They could be:

t - b = 2   and    b = 3t - 82

Input the second equation into the first equation at the variable be and solve.

t - (3t - 82) = 2
t - 3t + 82 = 2
-2t + 82 = 2 
-2t = -80
t = 40

So Tom is 40. And since t - b = 2, Bob must be 38.

The length of a rectangle is 5 yd longer than its width.
romanna [79]

Answer:

w = 13yd, l = 18yd

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be width, so x+5 = length

Perimeter is sum of all 4 sides, and since opposite sides equal in rectangle,

P = 2(l+w)

  = 2(x+5 +x)

  = 4x + 10

Since perimeter is give as 62yd, equation is

4x + 10 = 62

4x = 52

x = 13
