Answer:

\boxed{x = 7}

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔJKL ~ ΔMNP

So, the sides of both of the triangles are proportional.

Taking proportionality of their sides.

\frac{JL}{JK} = \frac{MP}{MN}

=> \frac{20}{25} = \frac{4x-4}{30}

Cross Multiplying

20 * 30 = 25(4x-4)

600 = 100x - 100

Adding 100 to both sides

600+100 = 120x

700 = 100x

Dividing both sides by 100

700/100 = x

x = 7

Sally is 54 years old and her mother is 80, how many years ago was Sally’s mother times her age?
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

<u>41 years ago</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of years ago be x.

Then, the equation we need would be :

=> 80 - x = 3(54 - x)

=> 80 - x = 162 - 3x

=> 2x = 82

=> x = 41

Sally's mother was 3 times her age <u>41 years ago</u>

Checking

=> Sally = 54 - 41 = 13

=> Mom = 80 - 41 = 39

=> 13 x 3 = 39 [∴Verified]
