The answer would be 168 because Sam’s own age is 56 and his father was 3x older than him so u have to use 56x3=168. Babam u got urself an answer
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
10/5 ×/3 multiply 10×3 and than divide by 5
or another way start with multiplying 5 and n equaling 5n=
than 10× 3= 30 so you're left with 5n=30 divied 30 by 5 equalling 6
so x=6
D=12
Because if you write down the equation 4x-8=40 and plug in 12. 4 times 12 is 48
. 48-8 equals 40
Ok, so since it doesn't give a value for "my age", we'll call it x. So the sentence translates into an equation...
200 reduced means... 200 -
by 2 times my age means... 2x
equals 16 means... = 16
200 - 2x = 16
Now let's solve for x to find "my age"
First subtract 200 from each side to begin to isolate x
-2x = -184
Divide each side by -2 to isolate x
x = -184/-2
x = 92
I'm 92 years old!
