Let's say Jackson's age now is x.
In 20 years, (so 20+x), Jackson seven years ago will be 2/5ths of that age.
So 2/5(20+x)=x-7
Then you solve the equation
8+2/5x=x-7
15=3/5x
x=25
Jackson is 25 years old.
Let's check our answer! In 20 years, Jackson will be 45. 7 years ago, he was 18. 2/5 of 45 is 18. Our answer is correct!

Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
6x-1=11
Add 1 to each side
6x-1+1=11+1
6x = 12
Divide by 6
6x/6 = 12/6
x = 2
To answer this all you need to do is divide 120 by 50
120/50
2.4
So it will take 2 hours and 24 minutes (.4 of 60 to get the 24)
