Answer:

Leo is 1 year old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Lily's age = 5

Leo's age = [tex]3x-14[/tex]

we need to find the Leo's age.

Solution:

Leo's age = [tex]3x-14[/tex]

where x ⇒ Lilly age

But Lilly's age = 5 years (given)

So we will substitute the value of x as 2 in Leo's age expression.

On Substituting we get;

Leo's age = [tex]3x-14 = 3\times5-14 = 15-14 = 1\ year[/tex]

Hence Leo is 1 year old.
