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

Yaro buys a baseball cap for $9.50. He also buys a new baseball. Yaro speads $13.50 altogether.
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

13.5 = 9.5 + x

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, the price of the baseball cap, which is $9.50, and a baseball, whose price is unknown (and therefore must be the variable), total $13.50. So, to set up the equation add the two prices and set them equal to the total, 9.5+x=13.5.

Then, using the subtraction property of equality subtract 9.5 from both sides. This means x=4, so the baseball cost 4 dollars.
