Let's call the younger student's age A and the older student's age B. The teacher's age will be T.
B = 2A
T = 5B
T+5 = 5(A+5)
Simplify the last equation.
T+5 = 5A+25
T = 5A+20
Now we have two equations solved for T, so we can set them equal to each other.
5B = 5A + 20
We can plug 2A in for B
5(2A) = 5A + 20
10A = 5A + 20
5A = 20
A = 4
To find T, we plug 4 in for A in T = 5A + 20
T = 5(4) + 20
T = 40
The answer is 40 years old.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
12 + 3 = 15
15+5=20
Choice b would be correct since the slope of the line is negative !
-18x
you first times the numbers, which becomes -18
Next you add the exponent from the veriables (x) (if you're diving you're subtractiong example: x^a/x^b = x^a-b)
Sooo when you add them you get 8-7=1 which means.. x^1 (but you don't need to put the 1)
-18x
