Oh my goodness ! You were doing such an absolutely beautiful job,
as far as you went, but then you ran into some rough road and quit.
You've got the correct expressions for the ages of the three people:
-- Will . . . w
-- Ben . . . w+3
-- Jan . . . 2(w+3)
You slipped up when you expanded Jan's age: 2(w+3) = <u>2w + 6</u> ,
and it was all down hill from there.
Let's do it again, together:
-- Will . . . w
-- Ben . . . w + 3
-- Jan . . . 2w + 6
Total: (w + w + 2w) + (3 + 6) = 4w + 9
So the equation is: <em><u>4w + 9 = 41</u></em>
Now you're supposed to solve it.
Subtract 9 from each side: 4w = 32
Divide each side by 4: <u>w = 8</u>
-- Will = w . . . . . 8 y.o.
-- Ben = w+3 . . . 11 y.o.
-- Jan = 2(w+3) . . 22 y.o.
When will Jan be twice as old as Will ?
That'll happen in 'x' years.
At that time, Will will be (8+x) and Jan will be (22+x),
and her age will be double Will's age.
22 + x = 2(8 + x)
22 + x = 16 + 2x
Subtract 'x' from each side: 22 = 16 + x
Subtract 16 from each side: <em> 6 = x</em>
<u>Check:</u>
In 6 years, Jan will be (22+6) = 28,
and Will will be (8+6) = 14 .
28 = twice as old as 14. yay!
Can I make a little suggestion ?
I'm going to make it anyway:
Your problem was neatness.
You were doing great work in that big open space on the sheet, but it
started to get ragged. When you tried to look back to see if you made
a mistake, you couldn't find it in the mess.
This is not an easy problem, but you definitely know your stuff.
I think if you keep it a little neater, you're going to sparkle !

Answer:
area = 160 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
area = (8x 4 x 4) + (4 x 4 x 2) = 160 cm²
Answer:
Antwanun waters his lawn 3 times a week, he watered his lawn 24 . So what you will need to do is divide 3 in 24 to find how many weeks he has been watering his lawn, You get 8. Mr. Antwanun has been watering for 8 weeks. Equation- Antuwantun waters his lawn 3 times a week so if he watered his lawn 24 times, 3 times a week he would have been watering his lawn for 8 weeks.
Oh the ani me? I know the an ime if that’s what your talking about lol if not then I have no clue
