Hi
exponnential cannot be negative. So A is out
quadratic function cannot also. So B is out.
C is the only one remaining...
Take out the factor of 3 from both numbers
(69)/3 = 23
(12)/3 = 4
69 + 12 can be rewritten as 3(23 + 4)

Let the youngest sister be n years
Lana will be 2n years, as her youngest sister is half her age
The age of the twins separately will be 2n-2 as they are 2 years younger than Lana
So, the equation looks like this:
n + 2n + 2(2n-2) = 45
Now solve for n:
3n + 4n - 4 = 45
7n - 4 = 45
7n = 49
n = 7
So the youngest sister is 7, Lana is 14 and the twins are 12. 14 + 12 + 12 + 7 =45
Answer:
x = 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
