14 = 9 - p

Move 9 to the other side

Sign changes from +9 to -9

14-9= 9-9-p

14-9= -p

5=-p

Mutiply both sides by -1 to get + p

(5)(-1)= (-p)(-1)

p= -5

Answer: p= -5

If now Lina is three times as old as Nick, and in 6 years she will be twice as old as he, how old are they now?\

Kitty [74]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Nick's age = x years

Lina's age =3*x = 3x

After 6 years,

Lina's age = 3x + 6

Nick's age = x + 6

3x + 6 = 2*(x+6)

3x + 6 = 2*x + 2*6

3x + 6 = 2x + 12 {Subtract 6 form both sides}

3x +6 - 6 = 2x + 12 - 6

3x = 2x + 6 {subtract 2x from both sides}

3x - 2x = 2x + 6 - 2x

x = 6

Nick's age = 6 years

Lina's age =3*6 = 18 years
