Answer:
Part a) Daniel's age is 2 years
Part b) Kevin's age is 8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The question is </em></u>
Part a) How old is Daniel?
Part b) How old is Kevin?
Let
x ----> Kevin's age
y ----> Daniel's age
we know that
-----> equation A
----> equation B
Equate equation A and equation B
solve for y
therefore
Daniel's age is 2 years
<em>Find the value of x</em>
substitute the value of y in any of the two equations
therefore
Kevin's age is 8 years
Answer:
g(x) = x+3.

i hope this helps :D
To find this, turn the word question into an equation.
"One less than" means - 1, which is 1 being subtracted from something.
"half a number" means 1/2x, since 1/2 is half and x is unknown.
"is 12" means = 12, which is something equals 12.
Putting this in order would be 1/2x, then - 1, then = 12.
As an equation, this is 1/2x - 1 = 12.
So the equation is 1/2x - 1 = 12
Now you must find the number by solving this equation.
1/2x - 1 = 12
First, add 1 to both sides.
12 + 1 = 13
1/2x = 13
Now multiply both sides by 2.
This way, x will be isolated since 1/2x • 2 = 1x, and 1x = x.
13 • 2 = 26
x = 26
The number is 26.
Answer:
x=-15
Step-by-step explanation:
50=-10(x+10)
Distribute 10: 50=-10x-100
Add 100 to both sides: 100+50=-10x-100+100
150=-10x
Simplify: 150/-10=-10x/-10
x=-15
