Five years ago today, Artie was four times as old as his sister Carrie. In five years time, Artie will be twice as old as Carrie. Find their current ages using a system of linear equations.

25 , 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the present age of Artie and Carrie is x and y

According to the question, 5 years ago

In five year time

Solving (i) and (ii) we get

The current age of Artie and Carrie is 25 and 10 years

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

no he doesnt because "-16' is negatiive
