Let's say Jackson's age now is x.
In 20 years, (so 20+x), Jackson seven years ago will be 2/5ths of that age.
So 2/5(20+x)=x-7
Then you solve the equation
8+2/5x=x-7
15=3/5x
x=25
Jackson is 25 years old.
Let's check our answer! In 20 years, Jackson will be 45. 7 years ago, he was 18. 2/5 of 45 is 18. Our answer is correct!

Answer:
a) 122.5 m ; b) 10 s
Step-by-step explanation:
Just use the given equation and plug in what you know.
a)
d = 4.9t^2
d = 4.9(5^2)
d = 4.9 * 25
d = 122.5 m
b)
d = 4.9t^2
490 = 4.9t^2
100 = t^2
t = 10 s
