Which equation shows an equality between two different ways of expressing the age of Chen’s house?

A.53 = 2h + 5
B.53 = 2h – 5
C.53= 1/2h + 5
D.53= 1/2h - 5

Answer 1

a

Explanation:

Answer 2

The Equation which shows the equality is 53 = 2 h + 5 ,

The age of Sunny's house is 24 years old

Explanation:

Given as ;

The age of the house of Chen's is 53 years old

Let the age of of the house of sunny = h years old

So, according to question

Chen's house age is 5 years more than twice the age of sunny's house

I.e Chen's house age = 2 × sunny's house age + 5

Or, 53 = 2 × h + 5

or, 2 × h = 53 - 5

so . 2 × h = 48

∴ h =
`(48)/(2)` = 24 years

Hence The Equation which shows the equality is 53 = 2 h + 5 , And The age of Sunny's house is 24 years old . Answer
