Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm pretty sure that this is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of ages of two friends is 13 years.
The product of their ages is 42.
<em>Let the age of 1st friend and 2nd friend is x, y respectively.</em>
<em>1 st condition= The sum of ages of two friends is 13 y</em><em>r</em><em>s. </em>
i.e x+y = 13........ (I)
<em>2nd condition= The product of their ages is 42.</em>
i.e X*y = 42........(ii)
From equation (I)
X+y = 13
or, X = 13-y........ (iii)
<em>Putting the equation (iii) in equation (ii).</em>
X*y= 42
(13-y) * y = 42
13y - y^2 = 42





Either; y-6 = 0
y = 6
Or;
y-7=0
y = 7
<em>Keeping the value of y as "7" in equation (ii)</em>
x*y = 42
7x = 42
X = 42/7
Therefore, the value of X is 6.
Therefore, either 1st friend is 6 years and 2nd is 7 years.

Answer:
x = -25
Step-by-step explanation:
25 = -7(x + 5) + 5x
25 = -7x - 25 + 5x
5x - 7x - 25 = 25
5x - 7x - 25 + 25 = 25 + 25
5x - 7x = 50
-2x = 50
-2x/-2 = 50/-2
x = -25
1 hour = 70 miles
3 hours = 70 x 3
= 210 miles
The answer would be 210 miles.
