<span>(4k + 5) (k + 1) = 0

Before you rush off and start trying to do complicated things with that equation,
put your pencil down, fold your hands in your lap, and sit and look at it for a while.
Keep looking at it until a little voice yells out "Hey !  That's a true statement if
either </span><span>(4k + 5) is zero  or  </span><span><span>(k+1) is zero.  THEN go to work on it.

(4k + 5 = 0)
4k = -5
<u>k = -5/4</u>

(k + 1 = 0)
<u>k = -1</u>

And there are the two solutions to that equation.

In 1995, Hazel was 25 years older than her son Gary. In 2022, Hazel's age will be 150% of Gary's age. How old were they in 1995?
Kitty [74]
So find the difference between 1995 and 2022 to make it easier
2022-1995=27

so the rephrased question is
when hazel was x years old, she was 25 years older than son gary who was y old at that time (equation is x is 25 more than y or x=25+y)
in 27 years, (this means x+27 and y+27) hazel's age will be 150% of gary's age (x+27= 150% of y+27)
percent means parts out of 100  so 150%=150/100=15/10=1.5
'of' in math means multiply so
the equations are
x=25+y
x+27=1.5(y+27)
subsitute 25+y for x in second euation
25+y+27=1.5(y+27)
add like terms
y+52=1.5(y+27)
I personally dislike decimals to multiply both sides by 2 to make 2 0.5's or 1 (you are technically supposed to distribute or divide both sides by 1.5) so
2y+104=3(y+27)
distribute
2y+104=3y+81
subtract 2y from both sides
104=y+81
subtract 81 from both sides
23=y
subsitute
x=25+y
x=25+23
x=48


Hazel was 48 and Gary was 23 in the year of 1995
