Hi there!

\large\boxed{y = -7}

4y - 2(1 - y) = -44

Begin by distributing -2:

4y - 2(1) - 2(-y) = -44

Simplify. A negative times a negative equals positive.

4y - 2 + 2y = -44

Combine like terms:

6y - 2 = -44

Add 2 to both sides:

6y = -42

Divide both sides by 6:

y = -7

Andrews [41]

I'm afraid I don't see the models you have written about although I do know the answer. (C= Courtney's age, S= Shilo's age)

Shilo is 7 years older then Courtney, which equals to C+7=S.

While at the same time Shilo is 13 years younger then twice Courtney's age. This turns into Cx2-13=S.

c+7=cx2-13. This is the equation, now lets work it out.

Add 13 on each side and you get

c+20=2c

Now we subtract c from each side and we get

20=c Therefor we have found out that Courtney is 20 years old.

Shilo being 7 years older then Courtney is 27
