Answer:
18 years
Step-by-step explanation:
2(8+x) = 34+x
16+2x = 34+x
-18 = -x
I don't know. But I know how to find it. Let's work it out together:
<u>5x = 2x + 20</u>
Subtract 2x from each side: 3x = 20
Divide each side by 3 : <em>x = 20/3</em> or ( 6 and 2/3 ).
first speed --- x mph
return speed -- x+16 mph
6/x + 6/(x+16) = 1
times each term by x(x+16)
6(x+16) + 6x = x(x+16)
x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0
(x-8)(x+12) = 0
x = 8 or x is a negative
her first speed was 8 mph
her return speed was 24 mph
check:
6/8 + 6/24 = 1 , that's good!
