Answer:

18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Transforming the question in form of equation:

Let x be the current age.

x + 32 = 5(x-8)

x + 32 = 5x - 40

5x - x = 40 + 32

4x = 72

x = 18

X+32=5x-40

makkiz [27]

Answer:

<h2>x = -11</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In algebra, the goal is always to isolate the variable, so that its value can be determined.

<h3>Step 1: Add x</h3>

6 + x = -5

<h3>Step 2: Subtract 6</h3>

x = -11

<h3>Step 3: Check</h3>

6 = -5 - -11

6 = -5 + 11

6 = 6 ✔

<h3>Step 4: Answer</h3>

x = -11

I'm always happy to help :)
