Solve for y. 2x+6y=12

1 answer:

7 0

2x + 6y = 12

2x - 2x + 6y = 12 - 2x

6y = 12 - 2x

6y/6 = 12/6 - 2x/6

Y = 2 - 2/6 X

Y = 2 - 1/3 X or

Y = -1/3 X + 2.

The ages of two brothers are in the ratio two to three, but in eight years, the ratio of their ages will be three to four. What

Darina [25.2K]

X = older brother
y = younger brother

Equation 1: x/y = 2/3 ⇒ x = 2y/3
Equation 2: x + 8/y + 8 = 3/4

$( \frac{2y}{3} + 8) / y +8 = \frac{3}{4}$
$(2y + 24)/3 = y + 8 = \frac{3}{4}$
$2y + 24 = 3 (y + 8) = \frac{3}{4}$
$2y + 24 = 3y + 24 = \frac{3}{4}$
$4 (2y + 24) = 3 (3y + 24)$
$8y + 96 = 9y + 72$
$y = 24$

The age of the older brother is 24.

$x = \frac{2y}{3} = \frac{2*24}{3}$
$x = \frac{48}{3}$
$x = 16$

The age of the youngest brother is 16.
