Answer: it’s c
Step-by-step explanation:
I answered the question and got it right
Let
R = Ralph's age
S = Sara's age
First statement is translated as:
S = 3R
Second statement is translated as:
S + 4 = 2(R + 4)
Use the first equation to be substituted into the second one in terms of R which is the one we are actually going to solve for Ralph's age.
Since S = 3R, then
3R + 4 = 2(R + 4)
3R + 4 = 2R + 8
3R - 2R = 8 - 4
R = 4 years old
Add 11 to both sides:
-4=-2t
divide 2 by both sides
2=t
Hope it helps! Comment if you have any questions!
Y=58
Y+14/6=12
Cross multiply to solve
So y+14=72 then subtract 14 so
Y=58
Assuming the graduate was 18 when they graduated they would be 26.
2017- 2009 = 8
18 + 8 = 26
