Trying to make honor roll

huilan is 15 years younger than thomas. the sum of their ages is 29 . what is thomas's age?

Hulian's age is 7.

Thomas's age is 22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Hulian = h

Let Thomas = t

Set the system of equation:

h = t - 15

h + t = 29

Plug in t - 15 for h in the second equation:

(t - 15) + t = 29

Simplify. Combine like terms:

2t - 15 = 29

Isolate the variable, t. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, add 15 to both sides:

2t - 15 (+15) = 29 (+15)

2t = 44

Divide 2 from both sides:

(2t)/2 = (44)2

t = 44/2

t = 22

Plug in 22 for t in one of the equations:

h = t - 15

h = 22 - 15

h = 7

Hulian's age is 7.

Thomas's age is 22.
