Michael is 4 timesavers old as Brandon and is also 27 years older than Brandon

Brandon is 9 years old and Michael is 36 years old. (Pls give Brainliest)

Explanation:

Consider Brandon's age to be x.

Michael's age will then be 4x as well as x+27 (since he is not only 4 times as old as Brandon but also 27 years older than him).

Well, if Michael is not an extraterrestrial being that defies physics, then he cannot have 2 ages simultaneously which leads us to believe that 4x has to be equal to x+27.

Set up the equation:

4x = x+27  (Subtract x from both sides)

3x = 27      (Divide both sides by 3)

x = 9

Brandon is 9 years old and Michael is 36 years old.

6x-7= -1696

6x= -1689

x= -281.5

x − 7 = − 169

x= -162
