Q. (23) 15+0.08t>3+0.12t(3) 15t+0.08<3t+0.12(4) 15t+0.08>3t+0.125. Show work for the following question (3 points)Julia is 4 years older than twice Kelly's age, x. The product of their ages is 96 . Write an equation that models this situation.Determine Kelly's age algebraically.
Define Kelly's Age: Let Kelly's age be x years.Julia's age is 4 years older than twice Kelly's age, so Julia's age is 2x+4.
Calculate Julia's Age: The product of their ages is 96. So, we write the equation (2x+4)⋅x=96.
Write Product Equation: Distribute x across the terms in the parentheses.2x2+4x=96.
Simplify Equation: Bring all terms to one side to set the equation to zero.2x2+4x−96=0.
Factor Quadratic Equation: Divide the entire equation by 2 to simplify.x2+2x−48=0.
Set Factors Equal: Factor the quadratic equation.(x+8)(x−6)=0.
Solve for x: Set each factor equal to zero and solve for x.x+8=0 or x−6=0.
Solve for x: Set each factor equal to zero and solve for x.x+8=0 or x−6=0.Solve for x.x=−8 or x=6.Since age can't be negative, x=6 is the correct solution.
