Answer:
Fred is 28 yrs old. Nathalie is 12yrs old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Nathalie's age be x
Let Fred's age be a
x+a=40 yrs•••••1
4x+a=76yrs•••••2
a=40-x
Substitute a for 40-x in equation (2)
4x+40-x=76
3x=76-40
3x=36
x=12
a=40-12
a=28
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number = x
7x + 1 = 5x + 25 Subtract 5x from both sides.
7x - 5x + 1 = 5x - 5x + 25 Combine
2x + 1 = 25 Subtract 1 from both sides.
2x + 1 - 1 = 25-1 Combine
2x = 24 Divide by 2
2x/2 = 24/2
x = 12
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Two composite numbers that have 8 as a factor are 16 and 24.
-- Subtract K from each side of the equation.
8/5 = 0
-- There is no value for K that can make this a true statement. So the original equation has no solution.
