Answer:

Jordans' age = 31 ; Anna's age = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations relating their ages

J + A = 50 → (1)

J = 12 + A → (2)

Substitute J = 12 + A into (1)

12 + A + A = 50

12 + 2A = 50 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

2A = 38 ( divide both sides by 2 )

A = 19

Substitute A = 19 into (2)

J = 12 + 19 = 31

Then Jordans' age = 31 ; Anna's age = 19

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

J = 12 + A equation 1

J + A = 50 equation 2

Solving equation 2

J + A = 50

A = 50 - J equation 3

Putting value of A in equation 1

J = 12 + A

J = 12 + 50 - J

Bringing like terms on one side

J + J = 12 + 50

2J = 62

J = 62/2 = 31

Putting value of J in equation 3

A = 50 - J

A = 50 - 31 = 19

Checking answer by putting values in equation 2

J + A = 50

31 + 19 = 50

50 = 50

So the age of Jordan is 31 and Anna is 19

Can you help me please ?

(Create a table then plot the points)

X | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |

-------------------------

Y | -1 | 3 | 7 | 11 |

4 (0) -1 => 0 - 1 = -1

4 (1) -1 => 4 - 1 = 3

4 (2) -1 => 8 - 1 = 7

4 (3) -1 => 12 - 1 = 11

Just apply the table method to the others and you should be fine! :)

0.6(4-2x)=20.5-(3x+10)

solong [7]

The solution of 0.6(4-2x)=20.5-(3x+10) is x = 4.5

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, expression is 0.6 ( 4 – 2x ) = 20.5 – ( 3x + 10 )

We have to solve the above given equation for x.

Now, take the equation

$\rightarrow 0.6(4-2 x)=20.5-(3 x+10)$

We have to use BODMAS rule. BODMAS means sequence of operations which is brackets, order, division, multiplication, addition and then subtraction

On solving the brackets, we get

$\rightarrow 0.6 \times 4-0.6 \times 2 x=20.5-3 x-10$

Now multiplication is given preference

$\rightarrow 2.4-1.2 x=10.5-3 x$

$\rightarrow 3 x-1.2 x=10.5-2.4$

Now subtraction is done

$\rightarrow 1.8 \mathrm{x}=8.1$

Now division is performed

$\rightarrow x=\frac{8.1}{1.8}=4.5$

Hence, the value of x is 4.5
