I tried but see if this helps you In algebra, it is easy to find the third value when two values are given. Generally, the algebraic expression should be any one of the forms such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. To find the value of x, bring the variable to the left side and bring all the remaining values to the right side.
Answer:Robert's minimum age is 11 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent George's age.
Let y represent Edward's age.
Let z represent Robert's age.
George is twice as old as Edward. It means that
x = 2y
Edward's age exceeds Robert's age by 4 years. It means that
z = y - 4
If the sum of the three ages is at least 56 years, it means that
x + y + z ≥ 56 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 2y and z = y - 4 into equation 1, it becomes
2y + y + y - 4 ≥ 56
4y - 4 ≥ 56
4y ≥ 56 + 4
y ≥ 60/4
y ≥ 15
z = y - 4 = 15 - 4
z ≥ 11
