Answer:

Jake is 9, and Jake's dad is 43.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, let's start off by putting a variable for Jack's age, A.

We know that Jack's father is 2 less than 5 times, so we can write his as 5x -2.

Now let's make an equation:

52 = x + 5x - 2

We need to isolate the x-values so we need to add 2 on both sides:

54= x + 5x

No we need to add the like terms:

54 = 6x

Finally, we just divide by 6 on each side.

Now we know X = 9 but we're not done yet :)

So because Jake's dad is almost 5 times as much, we first multiply Jack's age by 5. We get 45 but we need to subtract 2 which leaves us with 43.

-2 + (–15) = –(2 + 15) what property is this equation
barxatty [35]

Hello.

The answer is: The Commutative property

The Commutative property states that order does not matter. Multiplication and addition are commutative. Commutative is also when you change the order of the equation but its still that same answer.

Have a nice day.
