Answer:
Solution :
{x,y} = {0/14261512,4}
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] y = x + 4
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] 12x - 5•(x +4) = -20
[1] 7x = 0
// Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] 7x = 0
[1] x = 0
// By now we know this much :
x = 0
y = x+4
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = (-0/14261512)+4 = 4
Hi,
Let the
Youngest brothers age = x+2
Middle brothers age = x+4
Oldest brothers age = x+6
So,
Youngest brothers age = x+2 = 28+2 = 30 years of age
Middle brothers age = x+4 = 28+4 = 32 years of age
Oldest brothers age = x+6 = 28+6 = 34 years of age
Have a great day!
