The Wilsons have triplets and another child who is 14 years old. The sum of the ages of their children is 38. How old are the triplets? Please give me the equation!! Correct answer will get brainliest

Respuesta :

Answer:

Each age of the triplets should be 8 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

38-14=24

24 divided by 3 = 8

Answer:

Triplets are 8 not sure on the equation but I think its y = 8x + 38.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that all their ages together equal 38 therefore I would take,

38 - 14 = 24; this means that the triplets ages added together equal 24. Since triplets means 3 I will take,

24 dived 3 = 8.

I check my work by doing 14 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 38.

you asked for an equation I'm sure what you mean but I can try; I'm putting it into slope intercept form.

y = 8x + 38
