Given equations:
P=w+2
p=7w-16
Compare both equations
7w-16=w+2
Add 16 to both sides.
7w=w+18
Subtract w from both sides.
6w=18
Divide both sides by 6.
w=3, which is the age of Winnie.
Now Peter's age=3+2=5 years
Option A is the correct method to find the age of Peter and Winnie.
Ok
Sulition because I said do
You could do this in two ways, you could either subtract immediately or convert the time given in hours into minutes
STEP 1:
8:10
- 7:40
which will give 0:30
STEP 2:
8 hours 10 minutes into minutes is
(8 * 60) +10 = 490 minutes
7 hours 40 minutes into minutes is
(7*40) + 40 = 460 minutes
490 - 460
= 30minutes
Answer:
b=15 g=25
Step-by-step explanation:
lets translate that story problem to mathematics equations
the problem told that no. of girls are 10 more than no of boys so this will =
g=b+10
then in class there are 40 students that means
g+b=40
now we have to equations with two variables then we should substitute
(b+10)+b=40
lets remove the brackets
2b+10=40 subtract 10 from both sides
2b=30 now divide both by 2
b=15 so g=25 after you write the equation once again with the new proof or number
