If you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago. How old am I?

Mathematics

Answer:

You are currently 40 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the current age is represented by the variable x.

x = current age

The question says that "if you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago"

This can be represented like this:

1/2(x) + 7 = x - 13

Now we solve for x using basic algebra:

1/2(x) = x - 20

-1/2(x) = -20

x = 40

To check if this is correct, plug it back into the equation and see if both sides equal each other:

1/2(40) + 7 = (40) - 13

20 + 7 = 27

27 = 27

Hope this helps (●'◡'●)

AlekseyPX
For the answer to the question above,  we will use this formula to solve this problem
<span>d = kv^2 </span>

<span>plugging in, </span>
<span>4.2 = k*10^2 </span>
<span>k = 0.042 </span>

<span>d = 0.042v^2 </span>

<span>the revoised equation will be </span>
<span>d = 0.9*0.042v^2 , i.e. </span>

<span>d = 0.0378v^2
