Answer:

69 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let year of birth = x

This year = 2020

Year of 25th birthday = x + 25

Year of 55th birthday = x + 55

Present age = 2020 - x

Hence,

x + 2020 - (x + 25 + x + 55) + (2020 - x) = 58

x + 2020 - (2x + 80) + (2020 - x) = 58

x + 2020 - 2x - 80 + 2020 - x = 58

-2x + 4040 - 80 = 58

-2x + 3960 = 58

-2x = 58 - 3960

-2x = - 3902

x = 1951

Birth year = 1951

,

Hence, age =

2020 - 1951 = 69 years

klemol [59]

Answer:

Number of drink = 5

Number of pretzel = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of each drink = $4

Cost of each pretzel = $5

Total money = 65

Total number of drink and pretzel = 14

Find:

Number of drink and pretzel

Computation:

Number of drink = x

Number of pretzel = 14 - x

So,

x(4) + (14-x)5 = 65

4x + 70 - 5x = 65

x = 5

Number of drink = 5

Number of pretzel = 14 - x

Number of pretzel = 14 - 5 = 9
