Answer:

Adam is 9 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d and c represent Adam's and Alicia's ages.

d = c - 15, and

c + 6 = 2(d + 6)

Rearrange d = c - 15 as c = d + 15, and then substitute d + 15 for c in the second equation.  We obtain:

d + 15 + 6 = 2(d + 6), or

d + 21 = 2d + 12

Combining like terms, we get 21 = d + 12, or 9 = d.

If d = 9 then c = d + 15, or c = 9 + 15, or c = 24.

Adam is 9 years old.

What is the solution to the system of equations?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

(x, y) = (-3, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The second equation can be used to write an expression for y:

... -5x -21 = y . . . . . . . add y-21 to both sides

This expression can be substituted for y in the first equation:

... 6 = -4x +(-5x -21)

... 27 = -9x . . . . . add 21, collect terms

... -3 = x . . . . . . . divide by -9

Using this value of x in the expression for y, we find ...

... -5(-3) -21 = y = -6

The solution is x = -3, y = -6.
