Answer:

x = 3, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination method to find x:

  (7x + 3y = 30) * -1      ===>                              -7x - 3y = -30

                                                                          -2x + 3y = 3                    

  add two equations to eliminate y             ______________

                                                                                 -9x = -27     ===>   x = 3

substitution to find y:  

  -2x + 3y = 3

  -2(3) + 3y = 3

  -6 + 3y = 3

  3y = 9

    y = 3

Elimination method to find y:

  (7x + 3y = 30) * 2         ===>                           14x + 6y = 60

  (-2x + 3y = 3)  * 7         ===>                         -14x + 21y = 21

  add two equations to eliminate x             ______________

                                                                              27y = 81      ===>   y = 3

If you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago. How old am I?
mestny [16]

Answer:

You are currently 40 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the current age is represented by the variable x.

x = current age

The question says that "if you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago"

This can be represented like this:

1/2(x) + 7 = x - 13

Now we solve for x using basic algebra:

1/2(x) = x - 20

-1/2(x) = -20

x = 40

To check if this is correct, plug it back into the equation and see if both sides equal each other:

1/2(40) + 7 = (40) - 13

20 + 7 = 27

27 = 27
