Respuesta :
Let t be the required number of years.
34 + t = 3(6 + t)
34 + t = 18 + 3t
2t = 16
t = 8
The answer is 8 years.
34 + t = 3(6 + t)
34 + t = 18 + 3t
2t = 16
t = 8
The answer is 8 years.
Answer:
It will take 8 years for Tiffany to become 3 times as old as Vanessa.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Tiffany is 34 years old Vanessa is 6 years old.
Let the time taken by until Tiffany is only 3 times as old as Vanessa be x
Hence, according to the information given in the question equation becomes:
Age of Tiffany after x years will be: 34 +x
Age of Vanessa after x years will be: 6+x
Since, we have to find when Tiffany is 3 times as old as Vanessa
Equation becomes:
34+x =3(6+x)
34+x=18+3x
2x=16
x=8
It will take 8 years for Tiffany to become 3 times as old as Vanessa.
