Alicia is x years old. her aunt is three times her age. in 8 years, their total combined age will 48 years.

question 1. write a linear equation for their total age in 8 years.

question 2. find alicia and her aunt's present age.

first answer will get brainiest. if you want more points answer the question i just asked it's the same question.

Question 1:  x + 8 + 3x + 8 = 48

Question 2: Alicia is 8, her aunt is 24  

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:  'x' represents Alicia's age.  3x is her aunt's age because her aunt is 3 times her age.  In 8 years, their combined age will be 48.  They each age 8 years, so x becomes x + 8, and 3x becomes 3x + 8

Question 2:  solve the equation x + 8 + 3x + 8 = 48

      4x + 16 = 48            (combine like terms)

           4x = 32              (subtract 16 from both sides)

              x = 8                 (divide by 4 on both sides)

Since x is Alicia's age, she is 8, since 3x is her aunt's age, her aunt is 3(8) = 24

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.
