5p-p=4p. The question doesn't make sense because ther is no sign after the minus 6. If it is an X it would be -24p. If it is an add it would be -6+4p. If it was a - it would be -6-4p.
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, the mean is the sum of the numbers divided by the count of the numbers
The count of the numbers is 5
Thus;
( 4 + 8 + 9 + x + 2x)/5 = 6
(21 + 3x)/5 = 6
21 + 3x = 6(5)
21 + 3x = 30
3x = 30-21
3x = 9
x = 9/3
x = 3
Answer:
Ishaan is 49 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Christopher be 'C'.
Let the present age of Ishaan be 'I'.
From the given data, we can form equations which will help us solve the problem.
Christopher is 20 years younger than Ishaan. This means:
C = I - 20 . . . (1)
Fourteen years ago, Ishaan would have been (I -14) years old and Christopher (C - 14) years old.
From the data, I - 14 = 3(C - 14) . . . (2)
Substituting the value of C in Equation 2, we get:
I - 14 = 3(I - 20 - 14)
⇒ I - 14 = 3(I - 34)
⇒ I - 14 = 3I - 112
⇒ 2I = 112 + 14 = 98
⇒ I = 49
So, Ishaan is 49 years old.
D! all you have to do is switch the -9 and the z around! Good Luck!
