Answer:
24 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Malvin's age be x.
- x / 2
- x / 2 + 5 = 5x / 10 [ By taking the L.C.M.]
- ( 5x / 10 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) = 5x / 30 [ Multiply with the reciprocal of 3 ]
- ( 5x / 30 ) * 2 = 5x / 15
Now let's solve the equation,
5x / 15 = 8
5x = 8 * 15
5x = 120
x = 120 / 5
x = 24
Therefore, Malvin is 24 years old.

Answer:
x= -1/2 and x=2/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the 7x as a difference. It'll make it easier to factor out. An example of this would be 11x-4x
Therefore, the equation would look like this: 22x^2 + 11x-4x -2 =0
Look at it as if there are two equations: 22x^2+11x and -4x-2
Factor out the greatest common factor, which is 11 from the first equation. The equation will then look like this: 11x(2x+1)
Take the GCF for the second equation as well (which is -2). The equation should then also look like this: (2x+1)
Use the numbers on the outside of each of the parenthesis to form its own equation (to factor it out). This will be 11x-2
Now we have factored! Since the parenthesis equations are the same, we know that that is also part of the equation, so:
(11x-2)(2x+1)
Solve each equation for x by equaling them both to zero
