Question 508188: A rope is placed over the top of a fence, the same amount of rope on both sides of the fence. The rope weighs one-third pound per foot. On one end of the ropes hangs Tyler holding a banana, and on the other end is a weight equal in weight to the weight of Tyler. The banana weights two ounces per inch. The length of the rope (in feet) is equal to the age of Tyler (in years), and the weight of Tyler (in ounces) is as much as the age of the weight of the banana plus half of the weight of Tyler is one-fourth as much as the sum of the weights of the weight and the rope, where all weights are in the same units. Tyler's mother is half as old as Tyler will be when he is three times as old as his mother was when she was half as old as Tyler will be when he is twice as old as he is now. How long is the banana?
