Answer:
Answer: Janet is 16, and David is 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the ages be j and d.
j = d + 5
j + d = 27
Substitute d + 5 for j in the second equation.
d + 5 + d = 27
2d + 5 = 27
2d = 22
d = 11
Substitute 11 for d in the first equation.
j = d + 5
j = 11 + 5
j = 16
Answer: Janet is 16, and David is 11.
2 ways
zero product property
easy way
zero product
factor perfect square
m^2-3^2=0
(m-3)(m+3)=0
set each to zero
m-3=0
x=3
m+3=0
m=-3
m=-3 or 3
easy way
add 9 to both sides
m^2=9
sqrt both sides remember to take postive and negative roots
m=+/-3
m=-3 or 3
B is answer
8x - 7 = 3x + 9
8x - 3x = 9 + 7
5x = 16
x = 16/5 = 3 1/5
