Savannah is currently one more than twice the age of her cat, Selena Gomez. In thirteen years, Savannah will be 1.5 times as old as Selena. What is Savannah's current age?

23 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Savannah's age = x

Selena's age = y

Right now, x = 2y + 1

In 13 years, x = 1.5y

Here, we must use simultaneous equations to work it out.

x = 2y + 1

x + 13 = 1.5 x (y + 13)   --> x + 13 = 1.5y + 1.5 x 13   --> x + 13 = 1.5y + 19.5

x + 13 = 1.5y + 19.5

- 13

x = 1.5y + 6.5

x = 1.5y + 6.5 = 2y + 1

1.5y + 6.5 = 2y + 1

- 1

1.5y + 5.5 = 2y

- 1.5y

5.5 = 0.5y

x 2

11 = y

We know that y = 11

Savannah is currently twice her cat's age plus 1, so...

11 x 2 + 1 = 22 + 1 = 23 years old

Hope this helps!

P.S. If the cat lives 13 more years after this, it will be a very old cat lol :)

the number of the people going.

step-by-step explanation:
