x + x + 3 + x - 8
3x - 5 = 55
3x = 60, x = 20
Since we put Julie as x, we put Janet at x + 3, and the brother is x - 8 (8 years younger)
Julie is 20
Janet (x + 3) = (20 + 3) = 23
Brother(x - 8) = (20 - 8) = 12
Haha wring subject but convergent
A.125
Because to get from 5 to 25 you need to multiply by 5 so 25 times five equals 125
Answer:
y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms to the left
53y-55-(42y)=0
Add all the numbers together, and all the variables
11y-55=0
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right
11y=55
y=55/11
y=5
