Mathematics

-4 and -5
because to get 16 to 12 you have to subtract 4 but it wants you to add so you put a negative sign infront of it.

and a negative multiply by a negative equals a positive so -3×-5=15

Answer:

1.x=-4

2. x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

16+x=12

Subtract 16 from each side

16+x-16 = 12-16

x = -4


-3x=15

Divide each side by -3

-3x/-3 = 15/-3

x = -5

A man is twice as old as his son. Five years ago, the ratio of their ages was 9:4. Find the son's present age
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Son's age is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Father's age be 2x.

Let the son's age be x.

Five years ago:

Man's age will be = 2x - 5

Son's age will be = x - 5

If the ratio of their ages five years ago was 9:4, then:

2x - 5/x-5 = 9/4

⇒ 4(2x - 5) = 9(x - 5)

⇒ 8x - 20 = 9x - 45

⇒ -20 + 45 = 9x - 8x

⇒ 25 = x

∴ x = 25

Hence, the son's age = 25 years

If x = 25, the father's age (2x) will be 2 × 25 = 50 years
