Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Present age of Barry = b
Present age of sister = s
Barry is 8 years older than his sister means if we subtract 8 from present age of Barry both will be of equal age
s=b-8 ............(1)
In 3 years means we have to add 3 in their present age
s+3=b+3
then
he will be twice as old as
2(s+3)=(b+3
2s+6=b+3
2s=b+3-6
2s=b-3...............(2)
Put the value of s from (1) to (2), we have
2(b-8)=b-3
2b-16=b-3
2b-b=-3+16
b=13
Put the value of b in (1)
s=13-8
s=5
Present age of Barry = b = 13
Present age of sister = s = 5
Answer:
1.0769
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 4x2 to get 8
move -52x over the equal sign to make it 52x
so we get something like this: 8 + 169 = 121 + 52x
also move 121 over the equal sign to make it -121
Like this: 8 + 169 - 121 = 52x
Now when you simply, you will get 56 = 52x
Divide both sides by 52
Final answer is 1.0769
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Well 2x=16 is the same as x=8 when you divide by 2. So the dot should be on 8.
Lets solve for a
ax+b=x+c
step 1:add -b to both sides
ax+b-b=c+x+-b
step 2:divide both sides
ax=-b+c+x
ax/x=-b+c+x/x
a=-b+c+x/x
answer:
a=-b+c+x/x
Answer:
x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
9 + 5x = 9 + 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )
9 + 3x = 9 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
3x = 0 ⇒ x = 0
