Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.
Lisa gave her sister 1/4, or one-fourth of her toy cars. Brainliest would really help!
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:using elimination to solve for x
9x +6y = 3*134 | Multiplying 1st equation by 3
-4x -6y = -2*146 | Multiplying 2nd equation by -2
5x = 3*134 - 2*146
5x = $110
x = $22, the cost of the youth ticket
Step-by-step explanation:This question Sets Up two equations with 2 unknowns
Let x and y represent the cost of the youth and adult ticket respectively
Question states***
3x + 2y = $134
2x + 3y = $146
Answer:
K = 3
T = 2
And
H = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
3k = 9
k = 9/3
k = 3.
3k =k + 3t
subtitute value of k
3×3=3+3t
9-3=3t
6/3=t
t=2.
2k + h =18
2×3+h=18
h=18-6
h=12...
