vitfil [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

52 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent my current age by c.  Then 400 - 2c = 296, or

104 = 2c

Then c must be 104/2, or 52 years.

Solve using elimination<br><br> -3-X=0<br> -3y=-3-2x
ryzh [129]
<h2>The solution is (x, y) = (-3, -1)</h2>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given, system of equations are:</u></em>

-3 - x = 0 --------- eqn 1

-3y = -3 - 2x -------- eqn 2

From eqn 1,

- 3 - x = 0

<h3>x = -3</h3>

<em><u>Substitute x = -3 in eqn 2</u></em>

-3y = - 3 - 2(-3)

-3y = -3 + 6

-3y = 3

<h3>y = -1</h3>

Thus the solution is (x, y) = (-3, -1)

The sum of 3 numbers is 15. two times the smallest is 1 less than the largest, while the sum of the largest and smallest is 10.
GalinKa [24]
Let x = smallest number 
      y = middle number 
      z = largest number 
Equations:
sum of 3 numbers: x + y + z = 15
two times smallest is 1 less than largest: 2x = z - 1
sum of largest and smallest is 10: z + x = 10

z + x = 10 can be solved for z ⇒ z = 10 - x
substitute into 2x = z - 1 ⇒ 2x = 10 - x - 1
                                           3x = 9
                                             x = 3 (divided both sides of equation by 3)
Since z + x = 10 ⇒ z + 3 = 10 ⇒ z = 7
Substitute values for x and z into x + y + z = 15 ⇒ 3 + y + 7 = 15
                                                                                y + 10 = 15
                                                                                y = 5
