Step-by-step explanation:
a. how old is Cheryl?
Cheryl's age = d + 5
b. how old is Brandon?
d + 5 + 2
= d + 7
c. what was the difference in their ages 5 years ago?
Cheryl age five years ago = d
Brandon's age five years ago = d + 2
Difference = d + 2 - d = 2 years
d. what is the sum of their ages now?
Cheryl's age = d + 5
Brandon age = d + 7
Sum = d + 5 + d + 7
= 2d + 12
e. what will the sum of their ages be two years from now?
Two years from now,
Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7
Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9
Sum = d + 7 + d + 9
= 2d + 16
f. what will the difference of their ages be two years from now
Two years from now,
Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7
Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9
Difference = Brandon age - Cheryl age
= (d + 9) - (d + 7)
= 2 years.

Step-by-step explanation:
The quick way to do this is to multiply the bill by 1, mult. it again by 0.18, and then add the two results together.
Better and faster: Mult. the bill amount ($42.75) by 1.18:
1.18($42.75) = $50.45 (answer)
3/4
3.0/4=0.7R0.2 or 0.7 + 0.2/4
0.20/4=0.05R0.00 or 0.05 + 0.00/4
now put it all together
0.7R2 = 0.7 + 0.05R0.00 = 0.75 + 0.00 = 0.75
