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

Jade’s weekly paycheck is $306.25. She makes $8.75 per hour. Divide to find the number of hours per week Jade works.
ZanzabumX [31]

So if Jade makes $306.25 a week and for every hour she works, she makes $8.75, then all you have to do is divide 306.25 by 8.75.

306.25/8.75 = 35 hours should be your answer

Let me know if that doesn't make sense or you still don't understand it :)
