See could have got the correct answer because if there was more numbers in the decimal you can round it to get .34 or because both answers have 12.3 and it doesnt matter about the other numbers after 3
There are four values, including the unknown value x. The sum of the four values is the given value of the mean, 11.5, multiplied by four. Let S be the sum of the four values. Then we can write:


x = 46 + 5 = 51
The answer is: The value of x is 51.
Answer:
<u>The sum of their ages now is 13</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Dally's age = x
Dilly's age = x - 7
In 4 years time Dilly will be half Dally’s age, therefore:
Dilly's age plus four equals to half of Dally’s age plus four,
replacing with the values and variables we know:
x - 7 + 4 = (x + 4) /2
x - 3 = (x + 4) /2
2x - 6 = x + 4 (Multiplying by 2 at both sides)
2x - x = 4 + 6 (Like terms)
x = 10 ⇒ x - 7 = 3
<u>The sum of their ages now is 13 (10 + 3)</u>
Answer:
Equation shown
Step-by-step explanation:
Eq(1): x-3y=-12
X=-12+3y
=-4+y
Eq(2): x-3y=-6
X=-6+3y
=-2+y
