The sum of the ages of petra and her mother is 45. her mothers is 6 years more than twice as old as petra. how old are petra and her mother?

Petra is 13 and her mother is 32. I used this equation:

if you solve for p, you get 13. 13 times 2 plus 6 equals 32. So her mother is 32.

A)26•2=52there are 2 sides with the same length116-52=64the other 2 side have to be half of 64 each64/2=32the width is 32b)make two sentences about these steps because your teacher knows how you write and explain things.

1.17+3.99a. you combine the terms with a to create 3.99 and the 1.17 stays because it has no like terms or a variable
