Question

Tony and Belinda have a combined age of 56. Belinda is 8 more than twice Tony’s age. How old is each?

Answer 1

\[T+B=56\]\[B>2\times T\]

Answer 2

T + B = 56
B > 2 T, Now substitute, but you probably don't know what it means to substitute. So let's brake this down cause we're complete retards:

56-T = 2T+8
48 - T = 2T
48 = 3T
T = 16

So it's actually really simple...

Answer 3

T=16 t
B= 56-16 = 40

And we're done...
