Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that Devaughn's age is D, and Sydney's age is S.

We know that D is 7 greater than S, so D = 7 + S.

We know that the sum of their ages, or D + S, is equal to 95, so D+S = 95

We have

D = 7 + S

D + S = 95

What we can do is plug D= 7 + S into the second equation to get

D + S = 95

= (7+ S) + S

= 7 + 2 * S

7+2 * S - 95

subtract 7 from both sides to isolate the coefficient and the variable

2 * S = 88

divide both sides by 2 to isolate the variable

S = 44

Sydney is therefore 44 years old

tangare [24]

Answer:

A - They Have Too Much Caramel

Step-by-step explanation:

Ari likes 3 oz caramel for 5 scoops ice cream.

6 oz caramel for 8 scoops of ice cream is the same ratio as

3 oz caramel for 4 scoops of ice cream.

Since Ari likes 3 oz caramel for 5 scoops ice cream,

he will think it's too much caramel for the ice cream.

Answer: A - They Have Too Much Caramel
