Question

If, in 7 years, Susan will be 2 times as old as she was 3 years ago, what is Susan’s present age? PLEAZE EXPLAIN HOW AND DO IT WITH USING X

Answer 1

Let Susan's present age be x

Now, after 7 years ( her age will become 7 +x then) she'll be 2 as old she was 3 years ago.

Her age 3 years ago must be x-3

Now according to question,

twice Her age 3 years ago = her age after 7 years

now,

2(x-3) = 7+x
2x-6 = 7+x
2x-x =7+6
x = 13
x = 13



Therefore, her age presenr age is 13 years.

Answer 2

Answer:

Susan is 13 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan=x

After 7 years she will be 7+x  then she will be 2x as old as she was 3 year ago.

age 3 yrs ago=x-3

2x-6=7+x

if you simplify....

now she is 13

hope it helps!!!!
