Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you have to make a system of equations.
Since the father and son's age sum up to 60, the first equation will be:
f + s = 60
Secondly, since the father's age is 5 times the age of the son 6 years ago the equation will be:
6 - (5s) = f
Now, you have to solve the first equation to let it equal to s
f + s = 60
f = 60 - s
Plug in
6 - 5s = 60 - s
+s +s
6 - 4s = 60
-6 -6
---------------------
-4s = 54
----- -----
-4 -4
s ≅ 14
14 + 6 = 20
Answer:
x= -6
Step-by-step explanation:
y=4x-6
y=5x, so where ever you see y, put 5x there.
hence, 5x=4x-6
5x-4x=-6
x= -6
Upper quartile would be 4.5. The interquartile range could be 6.

Variables - a quantity that may change, depends on the context of the math problem. Ex: x,y
Terms - a variable, or constant, that is multiplied by a variable or variables.
Ex: 5x + 2 + 3y <-- has 3 terms
Coefficient - the constant that multiplies the variable and is next to a variable, Ex: (5x) <-- coefficient is 5
Constants - A fixed value such as 5, 6, 7, etc
