Answer:
Age Problem
Romar's age = 2q
Jaypee's age = 2q + 2
Sum of Romar and Mavic's ages = 2q + q = 3q
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Romar is twice as old as Mavic and Mavic is q years old then, Romar's age will be 2q.
Given that Jaypee is 2 years older than Romar then Jaypee's age will be 2q + 2.
If Romar's age is 2q and Mavic's age is q then the sum of their ages will be 2q + q which is equals to 3q.
Given : Romar is twice as old as Mavic.
Jaypee is 8 years older than Romar.
To Find : Write an algebraic equation showing that twice the sum of Romar and Mavic ages will result to Jaypee's age.
Solution:
Let say Mavic. age = M
Romar age = 2M
Jaypee is 8 years older than Romar. = 2M + 8
twice the sum of Romar and Mavic ages will result to Jaypee's age.
2 ( 2M + M) = 2M + 8
is the required algebraic equation
=> 6M = 2M + 8
=> 4M = 8
=> M = 2
Mavic. age = 2
Romar age = 4
Jaypee age = 12
