<span>This is the equation made from the problem where x=mystery number
</span><span>2x+3(x+1)=4(x-1)</span><span>
</span><span>Now let's solve for x!
</span><span>
</span><span>We start by distributing 3 into (X+1)
</span><span>
</span><span>3(x)=3x and 3(1)=3
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 2x+3x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's combine both x values on the left side of the equation: 2x + 3x=5x
</span><span>
</span><span>We now have 5x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's distribute 4 into (x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>4(x)=4x and 4(-1)=-4
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 5x+3=4x-4
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 3 form both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>5x=4x-7
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 4x from both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>x=-7
</span><span>
</span><span>Yay! So the number she is thinking of is -7!</span><span>

The answer of the question is 75
Answer:
48 yr. old
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume daughter is 4 and mom is 10 times her age, so mom is 40.
10 (woman) * 4 (daughter's age) = 40 yr. old mom
Present day...
40 (yr old mom) + 8 (yrs later) = 48 yr. old mom today
4 (yr old daughter) + 8 (yrs later) = 12 yr. old daughter today
So, if mom is 4 times as her daughter's age today...
48 (yr. old mom) / 12 (yr. old daughter) = 4
