Answer: Mark is 14 and Jim is 7.

Step-by-step explanation: It says that next year Mark will be threee times older than Jim was 2 years ago.

The wrk is:

7-2=5(Jims age 2 years ago)

5x3=15

15-1=14(you subtract 1 because Mark's current age is 14 because it says that next year it will be 3 times Jim's)

Mexine can stack 20 boxes in 15 minutes. how long will it take her to stack 100 boxes
Charra [1.4K]
Lets use a rule of three simple with direct proportion to solve:
 20 boxes -----> 15 min
100 boxes ----> x
x = (100)(15)/20
x = 75
therefore it takes 75 mins to stack 100 boxes

If we use fractions to solve:
15/20 = x/100
and solve for x.
20/15 = 100/y
solve for y

8(3 – 2x)+ 4(3x – 2)=-16 <br>Can someone solve for x? please​
castortr0y [4]

Answer: x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

8(3-2x) + 4(3x - 2) = -16

expanding the equation , we have

24 - 16x +12x - 8 = -16

16 - 4x = -16

collecting the like terms

4x = 32

x = 32/4

x = 8
