The answer to this would be x-(x+14)

Here's an explanation:

Let x represent the unknown number. The problem says that x has been decreased by the sum of x and 14. So, to put this in a form of an equation, it would be x-(x+14), since you have to do the addition first before you can subtract the two number since you don't know what x is. This equation is equal to -14 no matter what x is.

The age of a boy is twice that of his sister. five years ago the boy was 3 times the age of his sister. How old is the boy

joja [24]

Answer:

<h2>20 years old.</h2>

Solution,

Let the age of sister be X

Let the age of boy be 2x

Now,

Five years ago,

 $3(x - 5) = 2x - 5 \\ or \: 3x - 15 = 2x - 5 \\ or \: 3x - 2x = - 5 + 15 \\ x = 10$ 

Again,

Replacing value,

 $age \: of \: boy = 2x \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 2 \times 10 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 20$ 

hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..
