So if you want it to be 9 less than your number (x) then you would subtract nine.
So it would be:
x - 9.
So if your "number" is 12 then you would substitute x for 12 and it would be 12-9. The answer is 3. So 3 is 9 less than a number (12).
I believe
As given Chole and Tinos age , the present age of Tino is equal to 15 years.
As given,
Let x and y be the present age of Chole and Tino. respectively.
Combined age = 48
Given condition,
x + y = 48 _______(1)
Three years ago
x - 3 = 2y
⇒x =2y +3 _______(2)
Substitute the value of x in (1),
2y+3 +y =48
⇒ 3y = 45
⇒ y = 15years
Therefore , as given Chole and Tinos age , the present age of Tino is equal to 15 years.
