Answer:

Jiri is 24 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "J" represent Jiri's age.

We could use "P" to represent Pamela's age, but that wouldn't help us in solving this problem.

However, we do know that Pamela's age is 3 times Jiri's age, so we can write Pamela's age to be 3J (3 times Jiri's age.)

We also know that the sum of their ages is 96.

Thus, we have: Jiri's Age + Pamela's Age = 96 years of age.

And: J + 3J = 96

Simplifying, we obtain: 4J = 96

Divide by 4 on both sides: J = 24

Bobby wants to go on a school trip that will cost him $250. He comes up with an equation that represents how much he needs to sa

monitta

Yes, Bobby will have enough money if he saves for 9 weeks. You can find this through either substituting w for 9 in the equation, or solving the equation itself.

Substituting:

$25(9)+30$
Substitute w for 9.

$225+30$
Simplify.

$225+30=255$
Solve.

255 is greater than 250, so yes, he will have enough money saved.

Solving the equation:

$25w+30=250$
Original Equation

$25w=220$
Subtract 30 from both sides.

$w=8.8$
Divide both sides by 25.

The number of weeks he needs is 8.8. When rounding it up, you get 9.
