Hello it's me again. I really have a hard time

solving problems with equations.I'm lucky that you're there. Thank you so much.

Here's how I got that answer (????)
2x-13=77
2x=77+13
2x=90
x=90/2
x=45 (???)

Please follow Steve's direction. Check to see if Kiwi's age is 45. Does that make sense?

will check and post it once i'm done.thanks

hint: it's x + 2x-13 = 77

x+2x-13=77

3x-13=77
3x=77+13
3x=90
x=90/3
x=30 Kiwi's age

sorry Steve and Ms Sue i was held back by my other homework. Back to my answer did i make it right? Thank you so much for all the help.

Yes, 30.
