Answer:

In 10 years from now Violet's age will be 27 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> Ben's age

y ---> Violet's age

we know that

Ben is 5 years older than Violet

so

x=y+5 ----> equation A

After eight years, Ben's age will be 1.2 times of Violet's age at that time.

so

(x+8)=1.2(y+8) ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

(y+5+8)=1.2(y+8)

solve for y

y+13=1.2y+9.6\\1.2y-y=13-9.6\\0.2y=3.4\\y=17

Find the value of x

x=17+5=22

therefore

Ben's age is 22 years now

Violet's age is 17 years now

How old will Violet be 10 years from now?

Adds 10 years to Violet's age now

so

17+10=27\ years

Answer:

- 7y +3 =-25

-7y=-25—3

-7y=-28

-7y÷-7= -28÷-7

y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Take +3 to the side so that your variable and a constant is on their own sides. When a number goes over the equals sign the sign changes at becomes the inverse that's why l said - 3. You now calculate - 25—3 equals 28 then divide by 7 to find y and your y is 4.
