2x + x + 10 + x = 110
4x + 10 = 110 (Subtract ten from both sides)
4x = 100 (divide both sides by four)
x = 25

Plug in values to check...

2(25) + 25 + 25 + 10 = 110
50 + 50 + 10 = 110
110 = 110

Mick is 50 years of age.
Sal is 25 years of age.
Eric is 35 years of age.

How many ways are there to divide 4 men and 4 women into two groups of size 4 each?

Arisa [49]

You have 8 people, you have 2 groups of 4.

8!/4!4!
=(8*7*6*5*4*3*2)/(4*3*2*4*3*2)
=(8*7*6*5)/(4*3*2)
=7*6*5/3
=7*2*5
=70

It's been a few years since I've done this. If you haven't learned how to do this type of an equation yet, then I'm probably wrong.
