Answer:
<h3>5x</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
The additive inverse of a function is that value added that will sum it up to zero
If y is the additive inverse of 4x, then y = -4x
Given the expression 17x+3y
Substitute y = -4x into the expression to have;
17x + 3(-4x)
17x -12x
5x
Hence the value of the expression in terms of x is 5x
Answer: 26 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = current age of Louise (in years).
Then current age of James = x+6
Eight years from now, James's age = x+6+8= x+14
4 years ago, Louise's age = x-4
According to the question
x+14 = 4(x-4)
⇒ x+14 = 4x-16
⇒ 4x-x = 16+14
⇒ 3x = 30
⇒ x= 10 = current age of Louise (in years).
current age of James = 10+6 = 16 years
Sum of current ages = 16+10=26 years.
hence, the sum of the current ages is 26 years.
