Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
Let J represent Jiri's age. Then Pamela's age is 2J and the sum of their ages is ...
J + 2J = 69
3J = 69 . . . . .collect terms
J = 23 . . . . . . divide by 3
Jiri's age is 23.
By the Pythagorean theorem
50^2 = x^2 +(x +34)^2
2500 = 2x^2 +68x + 1156
x^2 +34x -672 = 0
(x -14)(x +48) = 0
x = 14 or -48
The distance from the wall to the base of the ladder is 14 ft.

7-24-25 is a Pythagorean triple. The dimensions here are double those values. It can be handy to know a few of the Pythagorean triples, as that can let you write down the answers to problems without having to go through the equations.
Nasser is making 80 flapjacks
1800g / 225g x 10=80
We are given with two equations to find the values of two variables, hence the problem can be solved.
Adding the two equations:
x + y = 12<u>x - y = 10
</u>2x = 22
<u />x =11
y = 1
