If the origin is not shaded the answer is C
We can make two simple equations to express their ages to each other, then solve for one of the variables. Let n be Nojo's age and j be Jacob's age.
n(j) = 84
n - 5 = j
Use substitution to get only one variable in an equation.
n (n - 5) = 84
n^2 - 5n = 84
Since we have n to the power of 2, this equation has two possible answers, but since we are given four possible answer, just substitute them in the equation until one makes the left side equal 84.
<span>n^2 - 5n = 84
</span>12^2 - 5 (12) = 84
144 - 60 = 84
84 = 84
The answer is C = 12
Answer:
8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
10x+2=9x(3)
10x+2=27x
2=17x
x=8.5
57 miles because of they are driving 38 miles per hour that means in 1 hour they drive 38 miles. So if they drove for an hour and a half you take 38 and half of 38( which is 15) and you add them together.
Equation is
x-6=8
x=8+6
x=14
X equal to 14
