We can make two simple equations to express their ages to each other, then solve for one of the variables. Let n be Nojo's age and j be Jacob's age.
n(j) = 84
n - 5 = j
Use substitution to get only one variable in an equation.
n (n - 5) = 84
n^2 - 5n = 84
Since we have n to the power of 2, this equation has two possible answers, but since we are given four possible answer, just substitute them in the equation until one makes the left side equal 84.
<span>n^2 - 5n = 84
</span>12^2 - 5 (12) = 84
144 - 60 = 84
84 = 84
The answer is C = 12
Well, you can put various math problems into one. Equations can also show more information easier than writing many problems. Hope this helps, and keep learning!
Answer:
I'm guessing it could be B or D...I'm not 100% sure.
Step-by-step explanation:
It could be B because 5 can divide 45
It could be D because they are both even numbers.
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
When we subtract a negative, it is like adding
9 - -4
9 +4
13
Answer: t-13 C
Step-by-step explanation:
If the regular price of a tent is 13 and Harold has a coupon for 13 off, this means Harold has been subsidized by a factor of 13. The amount Harold will pay will be 13 less than t which is t-13 i.e 13 subtracted from the total regular price.
