Answer:
Lisa is 5 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
we can make an equation like
4x=15+x
X can represent Lisa’s current age
Now just solve for X
3x=15
x=5
And we can check
If Lisa is 5 years old now
In 15 years she would be 20
And 20 is 4 times as 5 which Is her current age
So Lisa is 5 years old now.
The sum of the two is three over ten or 3/10
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(x - 5) = 12
-2x + 10 = 12 (this is the mistake, -2 times -5 = + 10)
-2x = 12 - 10
-2x = 2
x = 2/(-2)
x = -1
