Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be Alvin's age and E be Elga's age

A + E = 27

also A + 13 = E

Substitute for A in the first equation

E -13 + E = 27

2E = 40

E = 20, so Elga is 20 years old and Alvin is 7.

2.4x-9 < 1.8x+6 solve the inequality
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

x<25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

2.4x−9<1.8x+6

Step 1: Subtract 1.8x from both sides.

2.4x−9−1.8x<1.8x+6−1.8x

0.6x−9<6

Step 2: Add 9 to both sides.

0.6x−9+9<6+9

0.6x<15

Step 3: Divide both sides by 0.6

0.6x/0.6 < 15/0.6

x<25
