Let's say X is the first brother's age
x+2 is second brother, and x+4 is the third brother
Since the product of the first and third boy x(x+4) is 20 more than twice (20+x(x+2), our equation is x(x+4)=20+2(x+2)
Simplify from there and see what you get.

A cab driver charges a 15 flat fee and 1.50 per mile. How many miles can you go with 30 dollars
Vika [28.1K]
Since it's 1.5 dollars per mile, you add 1.5 dollars for every mile and the amount of money total is 1.5m if m represents the amount of miles. In addition, since the flat tax is 15, you add 15 to it to get 1.5m+15. After that, since you only have 30 dollars, the amount of money is 30=15+1.5m. Subtracting 15 from both sides, we get 15=1.5m. Lastly, we divide both sides by 1.5 to get m=10
