Answer:

Jim's sister age now is ( 2x - 2) years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jim will be x years old in two years

At that time, his sister will be twice as old as he will be

Thus, the age of sister in two years = 2*Jim's age in 2 years

the age of sister in two years = 2*x years = 2x years

Jim's sister age now will be 2 years lesser than the age found above which is her age after two year

Jim's sister age now = age of sister in two years - 2 years

Jim's sister age now =  2x years - 2 years

Jim's sister age now = ( 2x - 2) years

35 is less than half a number equals 14. What is the number?<br> Plz help
Nady [450]

Hey there!

Let's write this as an equation, with n representing the unknown number.

0.5n-35=14

First, we add 35 to both sides.

0.5n=49

We divide both sides by 0.5.

n=108

Therefore, your number is 108

I hope this helps!
