Answer:

Tara is 27 and Adam is 31.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tara: x years old

Adam: x+4

Subtract the five years to get their current age

x-5 and x+4-5

x-5 and x-1

(x-5) + (x-1) = 48

x-5 + x-1 = 48

2x - 6 = 48

2x= 48+6

2x= 54

x= 27

Tara is 27 and Adam is 31

Solve. 2(2z + 5) = 50​
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

z = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 2 to the terms in the parentheses:

2(2z + 5) = 50​

4z + 10 = 50

Subtract 10 from both sides

4z = 40

Divide each side by 4

z = 10

So, the answer is z = 10
