Mathematics
1 answer:
lord [1]3 years ago
3 0

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

A certain fraction has a value of 15. the denominator is four more than three times the numerator. what is the fraction?
ra1l [238]
N/d = 15
d= 4 + 3n

d=n/15
n/15=4+3n
n=60+45n
44n=-60
n=-15/11
-15/11 / d = 15
-15/11 = 15d
d=-1/11
