Question

Twice the sum of Paloma's age and 15 is 16 how old is Paloma

Answer 1

hmmmm the answer is -7

Answer 2

-7, but it doesn't make sense bc age can't be a negative. But based on how this is said it sounds like -7

Explanation:

paloma's age = p

2( p + 15 ) = 16

2p + 30 = 16

-30 -30

2p = -14

/2 /2

p = -7
