Let x equal Thomas' age.  Then Huilan's age is 2x.  Set up an equation to model this situation:

x+2x=78

<em>*Combine like terms*</em>

3x=78

<em>*Divide both sides by 3*</em>

x=26


Hope this helps!!

Since the sum of both Thomas and Huilan’s age is 78—

You would have to divide by 3, because, the problem you are trying to solve is asking you for 1/3 of the ages.

(Huilan = 2/3)
(Thomas = 1/3)

So, you divide 78 by 3 and you get 26.

Thomas = 26

Solve for p.<br><br> 2(p + 1) = 18
n200080 [17]

Answer:

p = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 18 from behind the equal sign to cancel it out. This leaves you with 2(p+1)- 18= 0.

Next you'll need to pull out the terms to work with the beginning of the problem. 2(p+1)- 18= 0 would turn into 2p - 16  = 2(p - 8).

This would leave you with 2= 0, but that's not true so continue on to the variable.

So p - 8= 0 making the answer p = 8

Answer:

m∠CDE < m∠DEC < m∠ECD

OR

m∠D < m∠E < m∠C

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the angle-side inequalities theorem: In a triangle, the angle opposite to a longer side is larger, and vise versa, the side opposite to a larger angle is longer.

So, the order from smallest to largest is:

m∠CDE < m∠DEC < m∠ECD

OR

m∠D < m∠E < m∠C
