I don't really speak Spanish but I'll guess that says
How do I solve y = 1 - 2.5
Unless I'm missing something, there's not even any algebra here.
The way we subtract a bigger number from a smaller number is first we subtract the smaller number from the bigger number the regular way, then we prepend a minus sign.
y = 1 - 2.5 = -(2.5 - 1) = -1.5
Answer:
Age of Eva = 15 Years
Age of Carrie = 45 Years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Eva be X years
Given that Carrie is 3 times as old as Eva
Therefore age of Carrie = 3X YEARS.
__________________________________________________________
After 15 years
Age of Eva = X + 15
Age of Carrie = 3X +15
Given that Carrie is twice as old as Eva
so according to this condition
age of Carrie = 2*Age of Eva
Substituting the age of Eva and Carrie
3X +15 = 2*(X + 15 )
=> 3X +15 = 2X +30
=> 3X - 2X = 30 - 15
=> X = 15
Since X was assumed age of Eva so age of Eva is 15 years
age of Carrie = 3X years = 3*15 = 45 years.
