Hello there again. I have your answer: Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable. x = −8
Answer:
John’s age is 8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> John’s father's age
y -----> John’s age
z -----> John’s sister's age
we know that
-----> equation A
-----> equation B


-----> equation C
Substitute equation A and equation B in equation C and solve for y

Multiply by 2 both sides to remove the fraction



<em>Find the value of x</em>
<em>Find the value of z</em>

therefore
John’s father's age is 40 years
John’s age is 8 years
John’s sister's age is 4 years
Answer:
The first option.
Because we're solving for the price of each gallon, x will represent the cost of each gallon. Since 8.4 is the total amount of gallons, multiply 8.4 and x to get $23.94. Solve for x by dividing 23.94 to get $2.85 per gallon. To check this, substitute 2.85 for x into the equation: 8.4 (2.85) = 23.94
If I’m correct this is supposed to be a decimal ( here we use the dot not the comma ) but if so then 32.52 a good way to remember is 5 or more let it sore (meaning round up) four or less let it rest (meaning it stays the same)
