Answer:
Let's say that x is sam's age and y is Amy's age
x=y-4
and five years ago:
x-5=(y-5)/2
y-4-5=(y-5)/2
2y-18=y-5
y=13
x=9
then:
sam's age is 9 and Amy's age is 13
Answer:
327.6 €
Step-by-step explanation:
you can solve with an equation
1£ : 1.17€ = 280£ : x
1 : 1.17 = 280 : x
x = 1.17 * 280 : 1
x = 327.6
-------------------
check
1 : 1.17 = 280 : 327.6
0.85 = 0.85
the answer is good
------------------------------------
or you can simpy solve with a multiplication
280 * 1.17 = 327.6
Answer: 2x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write equations with the information given:
- <em>John has × marbles </em>
John=x
- <em>Max has twice (multiplied by 2) as many.max give gives john 5 of his marbles.
</em>
We have to multiply by 2 the number of marbles that John has (x), and subtract 5.
Max = 2x -5
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
The largest possible value of b is 10, since for some x = x₀ it could be the case that f(x₀) = -5 and g(x₀) = -2; then f(x₀) g(x₀) = -5 × -2 = 10.
