The sum of Tiana's and Audette's age is 20 years.
\n" ); document.write( " Double tiana's age is equal to triple Audette's age.
\n" ); document.write( " How old is Tiana?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write an equation for each statement:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "\"The sum of Tiana's and Audette's age is 20 years. \"
\n" ); document.write( "t + a = 20
\n" ); document.write( "a = (20-t)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "\"Double tiana's age is equal to triple Audette's age.\"
\n" ); document.write( "2t = 3a
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute (20-t) for a
\n" ); document.write( "2t = 3(20-t)
\n" ); document.write( "2t = 60 - 3t
\n" ); document.write( "Add 3t to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "2t + 3t = 60
\n" ); document.write( "5t = 60
\n" ); document.write( "t = \"60%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "t = 12 is Tiana's age
\n" ); document.write( ":
