A mother is 24 years older than her daughter. In 6 years, the mother will be twice as old as her
daughter. How old are the mother and the daughter now?
1. Define variables:
o Let xxx be the daughter's current age.
o The mother's current age is x+24x + 24x+24.
2. Set up the equation:
o In 6 years:
Daughter's age: x+6x + 6x+6
Mother's age: x+30x + 30x+30
o The mother will be twice the daughter’s age in 6 years: x+30=2(x+6)x + 30 = 2(x
+ 6)x+30=2(x+6)
3. Solve the equation:
x+30=2x+12x + 30 = 2x + 12x+30=2x+12
30=x+1230 = x + 1230=x+12
x=18x = 18x=18
x+24=18+24=42x + 24 = 18 + 24 = 42x+24=18+24=42

A company produces two types of premium coffee blends. The first blend is made by mixing
beans that cost $12 per pound, and the second blend is made by mixing beans that cost $8 per
pound. The company wants to make 100 pounds of a new blend that costs $10 per pound. How
many pounds of each type of bean should be used to create the 100-pound blend?
Solution:
1. x+y=100x + y = 100x+y=100
2. 12x+8y=100012x + 8y = 100012x+8y=1000

A plane is flying from City A to City B, a distance of 600 miles. The plane flies with a speed of
300 miles per hour (mph) on the way to City B, but on the return trip from City B to City A, the
plane encounters strong headwinds that reduce its speed to 250 miles per hour. How much longer
does it take the plane to return from City B to City A than it took to fly from City A to City B?
