Answer:

69 is her age

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equation:

400 - 2x = 262

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 400 from both sides

400 (-400) - 2x = 262 (-400)

-2x = -138

Next, divide -2 from both sides

(-2x)/-2 = (-138)/-2

x = -138/-2

x = 69
