What is the question to your problem? Sorry...
Answer:
You are currently 40 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the current age is represented by the variable x.
x = current age
The question says that "if you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago"
This can be represented like this:
1/2(x) + 7 = x - 13
Now we solve for x using basic algebra:
1/2(x) = x - 20
-1/2(x) = -20
x = 40
To check if this is correct, plug it back into the equation and see if both sides equal each other:
1/2(40) + 7 = (40) - 13
20 + 7 = 27
27 = 27

Solve the system using substitutions:
x has a value of 1. Use this value to find the value of y.
y has a value of 1.
x=1
y=1
5/12(poetry) + 2/5(biographies) = 25/60 + 24/60 = 49/60
60/60 - 49/60= 11/60
11/60 are the remainder of the books in the shipment.
