Answer :
Make an equation:
J = 1/2F - 10
Where 'J' represents Justin's age and 'F' represents his Father's age.
Plug in 12 for J:
12 = 1/2F - 10
Add 10 to both sides:
22 = 1/2F
Divide 1/2 to both sides or multiply by its reciprocal, 2:
F = 44
J = 1/2F - 10
Where 'J' represents Justin's age and 'F' represents his Father's age.
Plug in 12 for J:
12 = 1/2F - 10
Add 10 to both sides:
22 = 1/2F
Divide 1/2 to both sides or multiply by its reciprocal, 2:
F = 44
22 because 12 plus 10 is 22, or because 10-12=2 2+20=22 20+2 because 10nis half of 20
