Given equations:
P=w+2
p=7w-16
Compare both equations
7w-16=w+2
Add 16 to both sides.
7w=w+18
Subtract w from both sides.
6w=18
Divide both sides by 6.
w=3, which is the age of Winnie.
Now Peter's age=3+2=5 years
Option A is the correct method to find the age of Peter and Winnie.
Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
10(x-2)=-20
10x-20=-20
add 20 on both sides.
10x=0
10 times 0 =0
x=0
