Let D be Daniel's present age, then we can represent Kevin's present age as 3D because Kevin is 3 times as old as Daniel.
We can write an expression for Daniel's age 4 years ago as D-4 and Kevin's age 4 years ago as 3D-4.
We are told that 4 years ago Kevin was 5 times as old as Daniel. We can write this information as:
 
 
Now let us solve our equation to find Daniel's present age. 




Daniel's present age is 8 years. Now we will multiply 8 by 3 to get Kevin's present age as Kevin is 3 times old as Daniel.

Therefore, Kevin is 24 years old now.  
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for x:
-3x + 8 ≥ 14
-3x ≥ 6
x ≤ -2
Notice the sign gets reversed when you divide or multiply by a negative number.
The only option less than -2 is -3, A.
Here's a tip: on multiple choice questions, sometimes it's faster to try each answer instead of solving the equation.  This can save time on tests like the SAT or ACT.
Let's try it:
-3(-3) + 8 = 9 + 8 = 17
-3(-1) + 8 = 3 + 8 = 11
-3(0) + 8 = 0 + 8 = 8
-3(3) + 8 = -9 + 8 = -1
So you can see the answer is A.
 
        
             
        
        
        
2.40 before a 30% discount is 0.72
        
                    
             
        
        
        
10/25 = 2/5 Because you divide both sides by 5
