Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
→ First find the value of x and y
x + y = 5
x - y = 4
→ Add the equations to cancel out the y's
2x = 9
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of x
x = 4.5
→ Substitute x = 4.5 back into x - y = 4 to find the value of y
4.5 - y = 4
→ Minus 4.5 from both sides to isolate -y
-y = -0.5
→ Multiply everything by -1
y = 0.5
→ Substitute x = 4.5 and y = 0.5 into x² - y²
4.5² - 0.5² = 20.25 - 0.25 = 20
Answer:
33
Step-by-step explanation:
If m = Mother's age and d = daughter's age, we can make the following equations
m = 3d
m + d = 44
Now, using substitution, we can substitute m for 3d in the second equation:
3d + d = 44, 4d = 44, d = 11
Then, we can plug d into the first equation: m = 3(11) = 33
