To solve this problem you first need to establish what it is you are looking for.. if you knew the grandson age then you could find your son and you.  So that is what we need to find and since we don't know it, we will call it x.

Grandson = x
Son = 7x
You = 12x

Then it says the sum of the 3 is 100.... x + 7x + 12x = 100 then solve and find that x = 5.  So to determine your age, just put 5 in for x and you get 60... dang your old ha

Troy shares a family bag of 24 Jet Plane
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Troy ate 7 lollies.

Step-by-step explanation:

You start out by finding how many lollies Troy's two friends ate out of the 24 lollies. To find out how much Tane ate out of the 24 Jet Plane lollies you simply <u><em>divide 24 by the denominator</em></u> --> 24/3=8, <em><u>then you multiply your answer by the numerator</u></em> --> 8x1=8, so Tane ate 8 of the 24 lollies. Repeat this same process for Levi, and your answer should be 9.

Because Tane ate <u>8</u><u> out of the 24</u> lollies and Levi ate <u>9</u><u> out of the 24 lollies</u>, that indicates that <u>17</u><u> out of the 24 lollies</u> are gone (just add your results, 8+9=17). This leaves Troy with only 7 lollies (<em><u>subtract 17 from 24</u></em> to find out how many lollies are left, 24-17=7).

FABRIC You can spend at most $60 on lace. Cotton lace is $2 per yard and linen lace is $3 per yard. Write an inequality for the
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

2c + 3l ≤ 60

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say you buy c yards of cotton lace and l yards of linen lace. The cotton lace will cost $2 per yard, and for c yards, you have to pay $2 c times, coming to a total of 2*c for the cotton lace. For the linen lace, you'd have to pay 3*l for l yards. The total amount of lace is thus equal to cotton lace cost + linen lace cost = 2c + 3l.

Total amount needs to be less than or equal to 60 (at most 60), so total amount = 2c + 3l ≤ 60

We can then plug our values of cotton and linen lace into our equation

12 yards of cotton lace, 15 yards of linen lace

2c + 3l ≤ 60

2(12) + 3(15) ≤ 60

24 + 45 ≤ 60

69 ≤ 60

This is false, so you cannot buy these amounts of lace.
