Answer:

41 and 77

Step-by-step explanation:

x: his age the first time he went to space

y: his age the second time he went to space

the second time he went to space he was 5 years younger than twice the age when he went his first time, then:

y = 2x - 5

the sum of both ages is 118, then:

x + y = 118

If you replace y = 2x - 5 in x + y =118:

x + 2x - 5 = 118

3x = 123

x = 41

replacing x:

41 + y = 118

y = 118 - 41

y = 77

so when he was 77, he was 5 years younger than twice 41 ( 41*2 = 82 => 82 - 5 =77)

The distance from Kenya's house to her job is 18 miles. One morning she left her house at 7:15 a.m. She traveled at the rate of
Snezhnost [94]

20 minutes = 1/3 of an hour

1/3 = 0.333

 1/3 x 45mph = 15, so she drove 15 miles at 45mph

18-15 = 3

3 miles/ 20 mph = 0.15 hours


0.333+0.15 = 0.483 hours total

0.483 x 60 = 28.98 so approximately 29 minutes total driving time

7:15 + 29 minutes is 7:44 am she arrived at work
