Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Eli's age = 42 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be Eli's age and y be Cecil's age
So,
According to the statement given
x+y=60 eqn 1
Eli's age 6 years ago = x-6
Cecil's age 6 years ago = y-6
So according to the given statement
x-6 = 3(y-6)
x-6 = 3y - 18
x-3y = -18+6
x-3y= -12 eqn 2
Subtracting eqn 2 from eqn 1
x+y - (x-3y) = 60 - (-12)
x+y-x+3y = 60+12
4y = 72
y = 18
Cecil's age = 18 years
Putting y = 18 in eqn 1
x+18=60
x = 60-18
x = 42
Eli's age = 42 years ..
Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
firstly arrange whole equation,
-2x+7=19
Now, Transpose 7 to RHS (right hand side)
-2x=19-7
-2x=12
Further, seperate coefficient -2 from x
and transpose it to RHS and divide them
x=12/-2
Hence, x= -6
