Elga's age = x
Alvin's age = x + 7
x + x + 7 = 97.
Simplify the left side of the equation
2x + 7 = 97.
Subtract 7 from each side
2x = 90.
Divide each side by 2
x = 45
Since x is equal to Elga's age, Elga is 45 years old
Start with
Multiply the whole equation by 2. Since 2 is positive, we don't need to switch the inequality sign:
Subtract 3 from both sides:
1. A in some part is correct, but the triangles are indeed correct, and the argument is for HL, so the answer is C
2. Are congruent by SSS (both shares a side).
0.10r + 0.20b = 24
3r = b + 20....b = 3r - 20
0.10r + 0.20(3r - 20) = 24
0.10r + 0.60r - 4 = 24
0.70r = 24 + 4
0.70r = 28
r = 28/0.70
r = 40 <=== there are 40 reds
0.10r + 0.20b = 24
0.10(40) + 0.20b = 24
4 + 0.20b = 24
0.20b = 24 - 4
0.20b = 20
b = 20/0.20
b = 100 <=== there are 100 blues
