Let Mary's age be x.
Paul is three times as old as Mary, so Paul's age would be 3x.
Peter is four times as old as Mary, so Peter's age would be 4x.
The sum of their ages is 64
⇒ Paul's age+ Peter's age+ Mary's age= 64
⇒ 3x+ 4x+ x= 64
⇒ 8x= 64
⇒ x= 64/8
⇒ x= 8
Paul's age is: 3x= 3*8= 24
Peter's age is: 4x= 4*8= 32
Final answer: Paul is 24 years old.
Peter is 32 years old.
Mary is 8 years old.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
hey
9. 10x + 5y is the equation for larger watermelons + smaller watermelons (you did not provide information about the medium watermelons, so we must assume given the options you miswrote one of them). We can hold NO MORE than 500 pounds, so 10x + 5y must be smaller than 500. The best answer is C assuming that "5y" represents your "Medium Watermelons"- because smaller watermelons are stated to be 5 and medium ones should therefore be between 5 and 10, the option provided by A wouldn't make since because 3 pounded watermelons are not "medium" in comparison to the "small ones" that are heavier/bigger. Your best option is C, 10x + 5y < 500, the exact answer technically would be 10x + 5y <= 500.
Answer:
x=16.1
Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by -0.5

Add 7.1 to both sides
