scott is 3 years more than five times his sisters age.
\n" ); document.write( "x = sisters age
\n" ); document.write( "s = scotts age
\n" ); document.write( "s = 5x + 3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "\"write an equation that could bee used to find his sisters age
\n" ); document.write( "5x + 3 = s
\n" ); document.write( "5x = s - 3; subtract 3 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"%28s-3%29%2F5\"; divided both sides by 5
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "if scott is 23 years old. find the value of x to find scotts sisters age.
\n" ); document.write( "Replace s with 23
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"%2823-3%29%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"20%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 yrs is sisters age, if Scott is 23
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
