Answer:

3x + 10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This is calculated as:

Length of Tom's pencil - Length is Ellen's pencil

Length of Tom's pencil: 5x+25cm long.

Length of Ellen's pencil : 2x+15cm long.

(5x + 25)cm - (2x + 15)cm

5x + 25 - 2x - 15

5x - 2x + 25 - 15

3x + 10 cm

Therefore, Tom's pencil is 3x + 10cm longer is than Ellen's.

Max and his friend zeke are comparing their ages. they figure out that if they double maxs age from 3 years ago and add it to ze
chubhunter [2.5K]
The first step of solving this problem is to find your x, which is the unknown number. The unknown number is the age of Max. Once you find the x you can write out your equation.

The equation for this problem is:

2x+8=26

the first step is to subtract 8 from both sides so that all you have on the left side is 2x and your equation will look like ths:

2x=18

after subtracting the 8; divide everything by the coefficient of x which is 2, your result is:

x=9

Max is 9 years old.
