Age of Jen is 13.6 years old
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the age of Jack and "y" be the age of Jen
Given that This Christmas, your brother Jack will be 2 years from being twice as old as your sister Jen
The above sentence can be written mathematically as:
Jack age + 2 = twice of age of Jen

The sum of Jacks age and three times Jen's age is 66
Jack age + three times Jen age = 66
x + 3y = 66 ---- eqn 2
Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2
2y - 2 + 3y = 66
5y - 2 = 66
5y = 68
<h3>y = 13.6</h3>
Thus age of Jen is 13.6 years old
Answer:
x=3, y=-2, z=1

I solved by substitution
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angles of a 9-agon add up to (9 -2)*180° = 1260°. The sum of the given angles is
.. 1139° +x° = 1260°
.. x = 1260 -1139 = 121
The missing angle measure is 121°.
_____
The supplement of each interior angle is its corresponding exterior angle. The sum of exterior angles of any convex polygon is always 360°. Another way to approach this problem is to add the exterior angles.
