Question

I don't understand..please help:
Algebra... :
Twenty-eight less than Andrew's age is one hundred sixty less that five times his age. How old is Andrew?
(Please show work!)

Answer 1

x is Andrews age and if x stands for Andrew then

x-28=5x-160

then you would do =+160 to both sides getting x+132=5x

subtract the x from the side with 132 and then do 4 divided by 132
getting 33
Andrew is 33
