Question 985072: I am 7 years older than twice Peter's age. If our total ages is 52 years, how old am I?
Answer by Timnewman(323)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi dear,
let Peter's age be x
twice peter's age is 2x
Your age =7+2x
But the sum of you and peter's age is 52
Then,
x+7+2x=52
3x=45
x=45/3
x=15
peter's age is 15yrs,
your age =7+2(15)
=37yrs
HOPE THIS HELPS;
Best regards,
