Step-by-step explanation:
a. how old is Cheryl?
Cheryl's age = d + 5
b. how old is Brandon?
d + 5 + 2
= d + 7
c. what was the difference in their ages 5 years ago?
Cheryl age five years ago = d
Brandon's age five years ago = d + 2
Difference = d + 2 - d = 2 years
d. what is the sum of their ages now?
Cheryl's age = d + 5
Brandon age = d + 7
Sum = d + 5 + d + 7
= 2d + 12
e. what will the sum of their ages be two years from now?
Two years from now,
Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7
Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9
Sum = d + 7 + d + 9
= 2d + 16
f. what will the difference of their ages be two years from now
Two years from now,
Cheryl's age = d + 5 + 2 = d + 7
Brandon age = d + 7 + 2 = d + 9
Difference = Brandon age - Cheryl age
= (d + 9) - (d + 7)
= 2 years.
Answer:
x = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation (2/9)x + -2 = 6.
First, notice that adding a negative number is the same as subtracting by that number. So:
(2/9)x + -2 = 6
(2/9)x - 2 = 6
Now, we need to isolate the variable. Add 2 to both sides to cancel out the -2 on the left:
(2/9)x -2 + 2 = 6 + 2
(2/9)x = 8
Now multiply both sides by 9/2 to cancel out the 2/9 on the left:
(9/2) * (2/9)x = 8 * (9/2)
x = 72/2 = 36
Thus, x = 36.

Answer:
This equation is true because when you flip it 5+4=9 it is the same. and 5+4=9
Step-by-step explanation:
9=5+4 5+4=9
X=6
Z=8 so X:Z
=. 6/8
So 2 goes into both 6 and 8 so divide numerator and denominator by 2 which = 3/4
32/45 is the answer I believe
