We can set Maggie's age to x
If her brother is six years younger than four times her age, than her brother must be equal to: 4x-6
Since the sum of their ages is 39, we can set up an equation.
(Sum of Maggie's age) + (sum of Maggie's brother's age) = 39
x + (4x -6) = 39
5x -6 = 39
5x = 45
x = 9 , Maggie's age is 9
I believe it should be 1.296 miles
Answer:
A variable is a letter, for example x, y or z, that represents an unspecified number.
6+x=12
To evaluate an algebraic expression, you have to substitute a number for each variable and perform the arithmetic operations. In the example above, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12.
If we know the value of our variables, we can replace the variables with their values and then evaluate the expression.
Step-by-step explanation:
6z+4x=?
Solution: Replace x with 3 and z with 2 to evaluate the expression.
6z+4x=?
6⋅2+4⋅3=?
12+12=24

He will have a 1/531,441 chance of winning next week.
There are 10 balls in each container; for 6 containers, this gives us 10^6 = 1,000,000. There is 1 correct combination of balls, so his chance the first week is 1/1,000,000.
The second week, 1 ball is removed from each container; this will give us 9^6 = 531,441 chances. There is 1 correct combination, so he will have a 1/531,441 chance of winning.
