It's the third one. It is the correct option.
Answer:
Jo's age = x = 8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Jo's age = x
Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x
In four years time, Anne will be three times as old as Jo.
Jo's age =3( x + 4)
Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x + 4
How old is Jo?
Equate Jo's age and his mother's age
3(x + 4) = 4x + 4
3x + 12 = 4x + 4
3x - 4x = 4 - 12
-x = - 8
Divide both sides by -1
x = 8
Therefore,
Jo's age = x = 8 years
First you rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation
Second you solve it by using the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which “y” is the vet risk axis and “x” the horizontal axis.
The answer is:
6 = 9x + 27
depending on what you are supposed to do.
