Answer:

The oldest brother is 20 years old.  PLEASE GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Youngest = 5x - (x+4) = 60                           Oldest = 5x - 60

                   5x - 1(x+4) = 60                                5(16) - 60 =

                   5x - x - 4 = 60                                  80 - 60 = 20

                   4x - 4 = 60

                    4x = 60 + 4

                  4x = 64    

                    x = 64 ÷ 4    x = 16

Youngest = 16

Middle = 18

Oldest = 20

Answer:

addition

Step-by-step explanation:

18 (<u> d </u> - 9 ) = 198

     3

divide both side by 18

<u> d </u> - 9 = <u> 198 </u>  

3             18

<u> d </u> - 9 = 11

3

multiply both sides by 3

d - 27 = 33

add 27 to both sides

d = 33 + 27

lastly, add them together

d = 60

therefore, the last step is addition

Given the recursive formula, each terms is five time the previous one.

This means that:

  • f(6) is 5 times f(5), which means f(6)=5f(5)
  • in turn, f(5) is 5 times f(4), so we have f(5)=5f(4). This means that f(6)=5f(5)=5\cdot 5f(4) = 25f(4)
  • Finally, f(4)=5f(3) So, substituting this back gives

f(6)=25f(4)=25\cdot 5f(3)=125f(3)

In general, since you have f(n)=5f(n-1), each time you compute a new term you multiply by a factor of 5, so if m=n+k, you have

f(m)=5^kf(n)
