Katie is 6; Cathy is 18!
X- Katie’s age now and 3x -Cathys age now
In 6 years, Katie is 12 and Cathy is 24.
2 x (X+6) = 3x + 6
2x + 12 = 3x + 6
6 = x
I believe that it may be 90 I could be wrong though
Answer:
The solution set is (-20/9, -95/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve using the substitution method, start by solving the second equation for y.
1/3y = 7/3x + 5/3
y = 7x + 5
Now that we have this, we can plug it in for y in the first equation. Then we can solve for x.
-4x - 2(7x + 5) = 30
-4x - 14x - 10 = 30
-18x - 10 = 30
-18x = 40
x = -20/9
Now that we have the value of x, we can solve for y by inputting the x value into either equation.
-4x - 2y = 30
-4(-20/9) - 2y = 30
80/9 - 2y = 30
80/9 - 2y = 270/9
-2y = 190/9
y = -95/9
