Step-by-step explanation:

let father's age be f yr old and son age be s yr old

f = 5s -(1)

f + s = 60 -(2)

sub (1) into (2):

5s + s = 60

6s = 60

s = 10

f = 60 - 10 = 50

in 5 yr time, father age = 50 + 5 = 55

son age = 10 + 5 = 15

Angle A and angle B are supplementary. The measure of angle A is 4 less than 7 times the measure of angle B. Find the measure of
Alexeev081 [22]
<span>A = 157, B = 23 The definition of supplementary angles is that they add up to 180 degrees. So A+B = 180. And A = 7B - 4. So write down the formula A + B = 180 Substitute the formula for A in terms of B 7B - 4 + B = 180 Combine terms 8B - 4 = 180 Add 4 to both sides 8B = 184 Divide both sides by 8 B = 23 Now calculate A in terms of B A = 7B - 4 A = 7 * 23 - 4 = 161 - 4 = 157 Verify that A and B add up to 180 157 + 23 = 180</span>

7 - 7(-8 + x) = -14 + 4x How do you solve for x
Lelu [443]
First thing you need to do is distributive property and that will give you
 7-56-7x=-14+4x then combine like terms which will then give you
-49-7x=-14+4x Next get your letters on the left do that by subtracting 4x which will give you -49-11x=-14. After that you will add 49 to both sides which will give you
-11x= 35. Divide by -11 to get x=3.18

9w-4w+6&lt;1+5w supposed to combine like terms
Mariana [72]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

9w - 4w + 6 < 1 + 5w

To solve, collect like terms.

Subtract 5w from both sides

9w - 4w + 6 - 5w < 1 + 5w - 5w

9w - 4w - 5w + 6 < 1

6 < 1 (incorrect)

The inequality given has no solution or an information is missing.
