x - y = 14
given the ratio x : y = 5 : 3
then let x = 5x and y = 3x, hence equation can be expressed as
5x + 3x = 56
8x = 56 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 7
Hence x = 5 × 7 = 35 and y = 3 × 7 = 21
Thus x - y = 35 - 21 = 14
2 and 4.5 is not equivilant since 2 and 4.5 cannot go together (the 0.5 does not help and so it does not make it equivalent.)
Hope this helped!

Answer:
21; the age of the teacher
Step-by-step explanation:
15+x/2=18
Estimate - I estimated in the 20's because it only averaged up a little bit
Started with 23 and kept going until i got to my answer
21
15+21/2
36/2
18
Please mark brainliest :)
I'm pretty sure the answer to your question would be A
7 dollars each game and I know that because 10 would be 60 plus 16 which is way over and 5 would be 25 plus 16 which is incorrect 6 would be 30 which adding 16 would be 46. FINALLY ADDING 5 extra which is 7 times which is 35 plus 16 is 51.
Hope this helped
