So k=katie's' age
m=mara's age
k is 2 times as old as m
k=2m
sum is 24
add means sum
k+m=24
so we have
k+m=24 and
k=2m
subsitute
2m+m=24
add
3m=24
divide both sides by 3
m=8
subsitute again
k=2m
k=2(8)
k=16
katie=16
mara=8
Answer: yes it is indeed your very smart
Rent and electricity = 5x + 11
rent = 2x - 3
electricity = (5x + 11) - (2x - 3)
electricity = 5x + 11 - 2x + 3
electricity = 3x + 14
---------------------------------
Answer: 3x + 11

Hi there!
I believe the answer would be A. Addition Property of Equality
Adding 0.36 to both sides of the equation and x being -5 means that the value is true, making it the A.
Hope this helps !
