Answer:
x=25
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that "x" is Peter's age
assume that "y" is Phil's age
In the sentence "Phil's age is 7 years more than 1/5 times than Peter's age" are two things: "Phil's age": y and "1/5 times Peter's age": 1/5 x
create equation with these two things
y = 1/5 x
including "7 years more"
many people make a lot of errors with it, they dont know: y+7 = 1/5 x or y=1/5 x + 7 ?
in order to avoid mistakes
read the sentence and point, which: y or 1/5 x is greater and smaller
"Phil's age is 7 years more than ..."
so y is greater, and 1/5 x smaller
y = 1/5 x
greater = smaller
we must add 7 to smaller number to make an equality
greater = smaller + 7
y = 1/5 x + 7
Second sentence:
"4 times Phil's age is 2 years less than twice Peter's age."
Two things: "4 times Phil's age": 4y and "twice Peter's age": 2x
4y = 2x
read the sentence once again
"4 times Phil's age is 2 years less than (...)" , so 4y - smaller, 2x - greater
4y = 2x
smaller = greater
including "2 years less" we add 2 to a smaller number
smaller + 2 = greater
4y + 2 = 2x
Substitute y=1/5 x + 7 to the equation 4y+2 = 2x
