Mike age is 3 less then twice the age of his brother nuke.
M = Mike's age now
N = Nuke's age now
M = 2N - 3
Ten years ago, four times nuke's age was one more mike's age.
M-10 = Mike's age 10 years ago
N-10 = Muke's age 10 years ago
4(N - 10) = 1 + M -10
what are their present ages
find M and N
substitute M = 2N - 3 into 4(N - 10) = 1 + M -10:
4(N - 10) = 1 + [2N - 3] - 10
4N - 40 = 2N - 12
2N = 28
N = 14
M = 2(14) - 3 = 28 - 3 = 25
Mike is 25 and Nuke is 14.
check:
4(14 - 10) = 4(4) = 16 = 26 -10 = 1 + 25 - 10

Answer:
MN=23
Step-by-step explanation:
For the midsegment:
MN=(WZ+XY)/2
10x+3=(11+8x+19)/2
10x+3=4x+15
6x=12
x=2
MN=10×2+3=23
Answer: greater than
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because the "higher" the negative number, the less valuable. Imagine this, would it be better if you owed 32 dollars or 97 dollars? 32 because you don'y owe as much. The farther away from 0, the smaller the number is. -97 is farther than -32 from 0, so -97 is less than.
