Allen is 5 years older than Cassandra. In 4 years, he will be twice as old as Cassandra was 2 years ago. Find their ages.

C = 13, A = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 5 + C

A + 4 = 2(c-2)  

5+c+4 = 2c - 4

9 + c = 2c - 4

c = 2c - 13  

-1c = -13

c = 13

A = 5 + 13  

A = 18

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1

according to this law, when unemployment goes up by 1%, gdp drops by 2%. in the question, unemployment rate goes from 2% to 5%, meaning unemployment goes up by 3%, so the gdp drops by 6%. thus the effect is a drop in gdp by 6%.
