A.
Let x = age of Samantha.
Then x - 2 = age of Emily,
and x + 2 = age of Lauren.
b.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42
c.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42
3x = 42
x = 14
x - 2 = 14 - 2 = 12
x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16
The ages of the sisters are 12, 14, 16.
Answer:
second option
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter P is the sum of the 3 sides, then
P = 4x² + 3 + 2x - 5 + x + 11 ← collect like terms
= 4x² + 3x + 9
4.5{4_x}+36=202-2.5{3+28}
you first multiply 4.5 and the numbers in the bracket.
4.5*4=18
4.5*x=4.5x
you will obtain 18-4.5x=202_2.5{3+28}
2.5*3=7.5 2.5*28=70
18_4.5x=202_7.5_70
18_4.5x=124.5_18
-4.5x=106.5
x=23.67
8-9n=15 I believe
At least I hope
