Fed [463]3 years ago

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

tony is 5 years younger than Marvin's age 1 year from now.

t = (m+1) - 5

t = m - 4

6 years ago tony was half as old as marvin was then.

t - 6 = 1/2(m - 6)

Get rid of the fraction, multiply both sides by 2

2(t-6) = m - 6

2t - 12 = m - 6

2t = m - 6 + 12

2t = m + 6

from the first statement, replace t with (m-4)

2(m-4) = m + 6

2m - 8 = m + 6

2m - m = 6 + 8

m = 14 is Marvin's present age

:

how old is tony now?

t = 14 - 4

t = 10 yrs is tony's age

A publisher needs to send many books to a local book retailer and will send the books in a combination of small and large boxes.
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Answer:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

.

Where xx is the number of small boxes sent and yy is the number of large boxes sent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be xx the number of small boxes sent and yy the number of large boxes sent.

Since each small box can hold 20 books (20x20x ), each large box can hold 30 books (30y30y )and altogether can hold a total of 280 books, we can write the following equation to represent this:

20x+30y=28020x+30y=280

According to the information provided in the exercise, there were 4 times as many large boxes sent as small boxes. This can be represented with this equation:

y=4xy=4x

Therefore, the system of equation that be used to determine the number of small boxes sent and the number of large boxes sent, is:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

.
