Jack is 3 times as old as Lacy. 9 years ago the sum of their ages was 22 . How old are they now?

Sagot :

Answer:

Jack is 31

Lacy is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 9 = 22

since jack is 3 times as old as lacy,

the formula is

3x - 9 = 22

3x = 31

x = 10.3

So Jack is 31

And Lacy is 10

To prove this, subract 9 (years) from both ages

It will give you an approximate sum of 22 years for both their ages, as the question states

Since Lacy is a little over 10 years old, Jack is 31 instead of 30

The formula was taken from someone elses answer so sorry if it`s wrong
