John's age is 4 more than 3 time Mike's age. If their sum is 20, how old are Mike and John?
1 answer:
Let me help you with this :)
John = x
Mike = y
x = 4 + 3y (4 more than 3 times)
x + y = 20 (we put the x above into this equation)
4 + 3y + y = 20
4y = 16 (we transfers the 4 on the left side to the right side and subtract it from the 20)
y = 4 (the answer is 4)
we use this for the equation:
x = 4 +3*4
x = 16
John is 16 years old and Mike is 4 years old :)

E=9h+1.5(9)(h-40)
e=9h+13.5(h-40), since h=49
e=9(40)+13.5(9)
e=9(40+13.5)
e=9(53.5)
e=$481.50

Answer:
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Addition Method:
4x - 2y = 6
2x + y = 7
-2(2x + y) = -2(7)
4x - 2y = 6
-4x - 2y = -14
-4y = -8
y = 2
Substitution Method:
4x - 2y = 6
2x + y = 7
-2y = 6 - 4x
2y = 4x - 6
y = 2x - 3
2x + (2x - 3) = 7
4x - 3 = 7
4x = 10
x = 2.5
2(2.5) + y = 7
5 + y = 7
y = 2
