Question 1132725
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Let *[tex \Large x] represent Kayla's age now.  Then Joel's age now is *[tex \Large 2x], Kayla's age in 5 years will be *[tex \Large x\ +\ 5], and Joel's age in 5 years will be *[tex \Large 2x\ +\ 5].  Since the sum of their ages will be 55 in 5 years:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ (2x\ +\ 5)\ +\ (x\ +\ 5)\ =\ 55]


Solve for *[tex \Large x] and then calculate *[tex \Large 2x]

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi}\ +\ 1\ =\ 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
