Answer: jackson is 12
explanation:
let the age be represented by x
jackson is 2 times older than shelly so
2x is jackson’s age and x is shelly’s age
since the sum of their ages is 18 then:
2x + x = 18
solve:
3x = 18 ➔ divide by 3 on both sides
x = 6
so now we know shelly is 6
jackson is 2 times older than her so:
2(6) = 12

Answer:
<h2>
The manager's claim is likely to be true.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the factory produces 42,000 computer monitors per day
And the claim is of this amount produces fewer than 660 are defective.
a random sample shows that of 240 monitors 2 are defective
to verify the factory managers claim we need to know how many 240s are there in 42000
=42000/240= 175
Since each 240 will give 2 defective monitors
175 will give= 175*2= 350
350 is less than 660 hence the managers claim is correct
