Represent Age of Time Traveler =========> X
Solve:
x = 3(x - 20 )
Step 1: Simplify Both sides of equation:
x = 3(x - 20 )
x = (3) (x) + (3) ( - 20 ) (Distribute ):
x = 3x + - 60
x = 3x - 60
Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides:
x - 3x = 3x - 60 - 3x
- 2x = - 60
Step 3: Divide both sides by -2:
- 2x / - 2 = - 60 / - 2
x = 30
Answer: Our Time Traveler is 30 years old.

If each 1/2 is cut in 4 than you would have to multiply that by 2 because it's only half. Then since you're finding what fraction is it you would put a 1 on top and say 1/8.
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 12 = 4x add 12 to both sides you get 8x=4x+12 subtract 4x on both sides then you get 4x=12 divide 4x on both sides and x = 3 Hope helps!!
