Answer:

10 and 40

Step-by-step explanation:

let the son's age be x then the father's age is 4x

After 20 years

son is x + 20 and father is 4x + 20

The father is now twice as old as his son , that is

4x + 20 = 2(x + 20) ← distribute parenthesis

4x + 20 = 2x + 40 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x + 20 = 40 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10 and 4x = 4 × 10 = 40

Thir present ages are , son is 10 and father is 40

I don't really understand how to put anything into standard form. If anyone could help that would be great...thanks.

I believe you would first distribute within the parentheses and then make it so A and B are the only things on the left side and I and the other random characters are on the right.

Schach [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't see the choices, but I will make the equations that seems to be correct to me.

Known facts:

  • maintained an average speed of 35 miles per hour (mph) for the first m hours of her road trip.
  • next n hours of the trip, she drove at an average speed of 60 mph.
  • Eva drove a total of 225 miles in 4.5 hours.

Let's make the equations:

m + n = 4.5

35m + 60n = 225

Hope that helps!

Solve 2(1 – x) > 2x.
Fantom [35]

First you must distribute the 2 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be 1 and -x...

(2 * 1) + (2 * -x) > 2x

2 + (-2x) > 2x

2 - 2x >2x

Add 2x to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 2x is being subtracted, addition (the opposite of subtraction) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the left side and bring it over to the right side.

2 - 2x + 2x > 2x + 2x

2 + 0 > 4x

2 > 4x

Next divide 4 to both sides to finish isolating x. Since 4 is being multiplied by x, division (the opposite of multiplication) will cancel 4 out (in this case it will make 4 one) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.

2/4 > 4x / 4

1/2 > x

or

x < 1/2

Hope this helped!
