Answer:the uncle is 54 years old.
The woman is 18 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the age of the uncle.
Let y represent the age of the woman that he married.
In the film, an actor played an elderly uncle character is criticized for marrying a woman when he is 3 times her age. This means that
x = 3y
He wittily replies, "Ah, but in 18 years time I shall only be twice her age. It means that
x + 18 = 2(y + 18)
x + 18 = 2y + 36 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 3y into equation 1, it becomes
3y + 18 = 2y + 36
3y - 2y = 36 - 18
y = 18
x = 3y = 3 × 18
x = 54
Answer:
n = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
-4(9n + 9) = -12(4n - 6)
Step 2: Solve for <em>n</em>
<u>Distribute:</u> -36n - 36 = -48n + 72
<u>Add 48n to both sides:</u> 12n - 36 = 72
<u>Add 36 to both sides:</u> 12n = 108
<u>Divide both sides by 12:</u> n = 9
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in n to verify if it's a solution.</em>
-4(9(9) + 9) = -12(4(9) - 6)
-4(81 + 9) = -12(36 - 6)
-4(90) = -12(30)
-360 = -360
Bookshelf =7boards each
Lumber=4 boards each
He wants to make 5 bookshelves total
5x7=35
So he needs 35 boards
And each lumber makes 4 boards
So what number times 4 is equal to or more than 35?
9times 4 is 36
So he needs 9 pieces of lumber to make 5 bookshelves.
Good luck with your work! Brainliest would be appreciated :)
