Niko is 3 times as old as Lila. Niko's age is the same as adding Lila's age to the product of 3 and Amber's age. Niko is 45 years old. Kameron's age is equal to 2 times the sum of Amber's age and Lila's age. How old is Kameron? years old

Respuesta :

Answer:

Kameron is 50 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make equations and start filling in what we already know, assuming [tex]n[/tex] is Niko's age, [tex]L[/tex] is Lila's age, [tex]a[/tex] is Amber's age, and [tex]k[/tex] is Kamerons age.

Our first equation:

n = 3L

We know that Niko is 45, so

45 = 3L

Divide both sides by 3:

L = 15

So, Lila is 15 years old.

Another equation:

n = L + 3a

We already know Niko and Lila's age:

45 = 15 + 3a

Subtract 15 from both sides:

30 = 3a

Divide both sides by 3:

a = 10

So Amber is 10 years old.

Another equation:

k = 2(a + L)

We know Amber and Lila's age:

k = 2(10 + 15)

k = 2(25)

k = 50

So Kameron is 50 years old.

Hope this helped!
