Question

PLEASE HELP
The number of years from the start of the Great Depression to the first presidential election of Richard Nixon is six years less than three times Raul’s age. Nixon’s first presidential election happened 39 years after the Great Depression. Using the given information, write an equation to find Raul’s age, r. (not the question I need I already know its 15)

Raul’s grandfather is Miguel, and Raul’s sister is Paula. Raul’s age is the same as his grandfather’s age minus 60 times the age of his sister. Miguel is 65 years old. Using the results from Part C, write an equation to find Paula’s age, p (in years). (results from part C were that Rauls age is 15)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:-

As the question is based on 2nd part, we will obtain the answer directly from there.

Raul's age is 15

Raul's grandfather age is 65

We need to find Paula's equation. Here, I will find the answer too I.e the required equation of p, Paula.

"Raul’s age is the same as his grandfather’s age minus 60 times the age of his sister. Miguel is 65 years old."

So,

15 = 65 - 60(Paula's age)

So, this was the required equation.

Now, framing correctly, it will be:-

15 = 65 - 60p.

Hence the answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Raul's age = 15 years [Given]
• Miguel's age (Raul & Paula's Grandfather) = 65 years

• According to the Question :

⇒ Raul’s age is the same as his grandfather’s age minus 60 times the age of his sister Paula.

⇒ Raul = Miguel - (60 × Paula)

⇒ 15 = 65 - (60 × p)

⇒ 15 = 65 - 60p

∴ Required equation is (15 = 65 - 60p).

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀───────────────

• In case if we are finding Paula's age :

⇢ 15 = 65 - 60p

⇢ 60p = 65 - 15

⇢ 60p = 50

⇢ p = 50/60

⇢ p = 5/6 years

• Changing it into months

⇢ p = 5/6 × 12 months

⇢ p = 5 × 2 months

⇢ p = 10 months

∴ Hence, Age of Paula is 10 months.
