Let x = John's age now
half of what johns age was 4 years ago: (1/2)(x-4)
is equal to one third of what it will be in 5 years time: (1/3)(x+5)
(1/2)(x-4) = (1/3)(x+5)
3(x-4) = 2(x+5)
3x - 12 = 2x + 10
Here is the answer to the equation. The photo below is the work shown.
x^2-3x-18
Answer:
18 and 65
Step-by-step explanation:
under 18 would be 17 and under, therefore not including 18 year olds. obviously they are not 19 yet either, so they wouldn't fall into either category, therefore they may be unsure of what to answer.
same with 65 year olds; they are more than 64 year old, but not yet /over/ 65, therefore they would not fit into either category either.
