Total age 
<span>6 * 27 </span>
<span>162 </span>

<span>Subtotal age of first 4 </span>
<span>4 * 23 </span>
<span>92 </span>

<span>Subtotal of last 3 </span>
<span>3 * 34 </span>
<span>102 </span>

<span>In the total of the first 4 and last 3 </span>
<span>the 4th person has been counted twice. </span>
<span>This second time must be subtracted. </span>

<span>Therefor </span>
<span>92 + 102 - x = 162 </span>
<span>194 - x = 162 </span>

<span>Subtract 194 from both sides </span>
<span>-x = -32 </span>

<span>Multiply both sides by -1 </span>
<span>x = 32

Which of the following is not a valid conversion factor?
inessss [21]

Answer:

Out of the 3 that were listed, the "conversion" that is invalid is 1 meter = 10 millimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

First: Well, for something like this, you don't really need steps, you just need to know how to do process of elimination and also your conversions:

We know that 1 meter is 100 centimeters

We know 1 kilometer is 1000 meters

We know that 1 meter is 10 millim....... Wait. Do we know that?

No! 1 meter is not 10 millimeters, it's 1000 millimeters. So 1 meter = 10 millimeters is invalid.

If you ever need a converter, use this link: https://www.google.com/search?q=centimeters+to+inches&rlz=1CAFQZI_enCA835&oq=centim&aqs=chrome.2.69i57j0l5.9328j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

How did I lose 5 points?
PolarNik [594]

x + 4 = 3x - 8, is assuming D is the midpoint, and therefore ED = DB.

all we know is that D is <u>somewhere</u> in EB.


\bf E\stackrel{x+4}{\rule[0.35em]{17em}{0.25pt}}D\stackrel{3x-8}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}B&#10;\\\\\\&#10;EB=ED+DB\implies EB=(x+4)+(3x-8)\implies EB=4x-4
