Let Ted be x.
Ed is 7 years older = x + 7
Ed = (3/4)Ted
(x + 7) = (3/4)x
x + 7 = 3x/4
x - 3x/4 = -7
x/4 = -7
x = -28, Ted = -28 years.
(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21, Ed = -21 years
Goodness. We had negative numbers for the ages, well does that make sense? No it doesn't.
Our answer is correct. But the sense in the question is lacking. The question has been wrongly set.
<span>We might assume negative ages to mean before they came into the world, before birth! </span>

Answer:
x is less-than-or-equal-to 2.25 (x ≤ 2.25)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write down the inequality that represents the weight Li can add without going over the 50 pound limit:
47.75 + x ≤ 50
If we solve for x we have:
47.75 + x ≤ 50
x ≤ 50 - 47.75
x ≤ 2.25
Therefore, the weight Li can add to the suitcase is less-than-or-equal-to 2.25
