Okay so lets call Leah "L" and her cousin "C". We know that L+C=36 ... we also know that Leah is twice her cousins age. Therefore, L=2 times C, or L=2C. This is because Leah's age is equivalent to twice as much as her cousin's.
Now that you know that L=2C, you can plug this back into the equation. This should make it so that's there's only one variable now!
L+C=36
(2C)+C=36 ... here we subbed in L=2C
3C=36 ... we add up the C's
C=12 ... we isolate for C by dividing both sides by 3
So her cousin's age is 12 years old. Leah's age is twice that. Thus, she's 24. If you add the two up: 12+24, you indeed get 36. Hope that helps :))
Answer:
Lane Viking's Score is 17
Black Eagles's Score is 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Lane Viking's Score be x and Black Eagles's Score be y.
Black Eagles's Score = 4+ Lane Viking's Score
so y = 4 + x (Equation 1)
Total Score = 38
Black Eagles's Score + Lane Viking's Score = 38
so y + x =38 (Equation 2)
Putting y's value from Equation 1 in Equation 2
4 + x + x = 38
2x = 38-4
x=34/2
x=17
Putting value of x in Equation 1
y = 4 + 17
y = 21
There are 3 sticks because:
4 sticks is the total and when you take away 1 stick, it is
4 - 1, which equals 3 sticks
So, the answer is 3 sticks are left.
Question: If u are in high school, why did you ask this question? You already know 4-1=3. Im guessing it was either a joke, or u were helping other people get points. If it is the second one, thx!!
