Elga's age = x
Alvin's age = x + 7
x + x + 7 = 97.
Simplify the left side of the equation
2x + 7 = 97.
Subtract 7 from each side
2x = 90.
Divide each side by 2
x = 45
Since x is equal to Elga's age, Elga is 45 years old
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
= x²(-3 +5) +y²(2 -3) +5xy -2y
= 2x² -y² +5xy -2y
a) there are 4 terms in the simplified expression
b) 2 terms have negative coefficients (-y² and -2y)
1 1/6, 1 2/3, 1 5/6 is the order. :) hope I helped!
