Answer:
D. 16
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Because these are vertical angles (opposite pair of angles that are formed by intersecting lines), these are congruent. That means (8x-8) = (7x+8).
2. (Solving)
Step 1: Subtract 7x from both sides.
Step 2: Add 8 to both sides.
Step 3: Check if solution is correct.
Therefore, the answer is D. 16.
X=Elinor´s age today.
y=Mother´s age today.
(x+15)=Elinor´s age after 15 years.
(y+15)=Mohter´s age after 15 years.
We can suggest this systemen of equations:
x/y=3/8 ⇒x=3y/8
(x+15)/(y+15)=6/11 ⇒11(x+15)=6(y+15)
Finally, we´ll have the following system:
x=3y/8
11(x+15)=6(y+15)
We can solve this system of equations by substitution method:
11[(3y/8)+15)=6(y+15)
11[(3y+120)/8)=6y+90
33y+1320=8(6y+90)
33y+1320=48y+720
33y-48y=720-1320
-15y=-600
y=-600/-15
y=40
We find out the value of "x";
x=3y/8
x=3(40)/8
x=120/8
x=15
Answer: Elinor is 15 years old.
