Answer:

5 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The two numbers according to Bryan are x and 3x+3. According to Lori they are x and 5x-7. So we know that x+3x+3=x+5x-7. x and x cancel out. 3 and 7 add to 10. 5x-3x=2x. So 2x=10. X=5 and the other number is 18.

Rolando is 17. In four years, his age will be 3/2 the age of his sister Marisa. How old will Marisa be in three years
Bess [88]
To find the answer, we can first find the age of Rolando in four year:

17+4
=21

We can then proceed to find the current age of Marisa,which is 3/2 of Rolando’s age calculated above:

Let Marisa’s age be y.

3/2 y =21
y = 21 × 2/3
y = 42/3
y = 14

Therefore Marisa is currently 14 years old.

In three years, Marisa would be:

14+3
=17

Therefore, she will be 17 years old.

Hope it helps!
