J=jane's age now
a=amy's age now
a-12=amy's age 12 years ago


j is 7 older than a
j=7+a

12 years ago
amy was 1/2 as old as jamie is now
a-12=(1/2)j

so
j=7+a
sub 7+a for j

a-12=(1/2)(7+a)
times 2 both sides
2a-24=7+a
minus a both sides
a-24=7
add 24 both sides
a=31

j=7+a
j=7+31
j=38


jamie is 38 now

How do you make 'a' the subject of the formula: ab - cd = ac
xxTIMURxx [149]
First bring all terms in 'a' to the left side of the formula by subtracting ac from both sides

ab - ac - cd = ac - ac 
ab - ac - cd = 0
now add cd to both sides
ab - ac -cd + cd = cd
ab - ac = cd
now factor the left side by taking out the 'a' 
a(b-c) = cd
now divide both sides by (b-c)
a = cd / (b-c)
done
