The number of years that Joe has been on the basketball team is 6 more than 4 times the number that Devin has. In total, the boys have been on the team for 14 years. How long has Joe been on the team?

62/5 years or 12 2/5 years or 12.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x equal Devin’s number of years playing basketball

Let 4x+6 equal Joe’s number of years on the team

X+4x+6=14

Combine like terms = 5x+6=14

Subtraction Property = 5x=8

Division Property = x= 8/5 or 1 3/5 or 1.6

That is Devin’s # of years

Now, we have to find Joe’s # of years

4x+6

4*8/5 +6

32/5 +6

32/5 +30/5

62/5 or 12 2/5 or 12.4 = Joe’s # of years on the team

24/56=hx^7
