Let
x------> Cathy's<span> ages
</span>y------> Tony's ages
we know that
x+y=65-----> x=65-y-----> equation 1
y-8=(2/5)*(x-8)-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
y-8=(2/5)*(65-y-8)---> y-8=22.8-0.4y----> y+0.4y=22.8+8
1.4y=30.8-----> y=22
x=65-y-----> x=65-22----> x=43
the answer is
Cathy's ages is 43 years
Tony's ages is 22 years
Answer: 16q5r2
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x - 2y) / (z + 4)........x = 1, y = -2, z = 3
now we start subbing
((3(1) - 2(-2)) / (3 + 4).....simplify
(3 + 4) / (3 + 4) =
7/7 =
1 <== ur answer
You must first attach the problems with your question.
If x=4 , then . . .
... 7x = 28
... 7x+4 = 28+4 = 32
... absolute value of 32 is 32.
... -(absolute value of 32) = -32
