Answer: the man is 58!

Step-by-step explanation: please mark brainliest

we could use this equation

168=400-4a an a= uknown age

-400 -400

-232=-4a

divide by -4 on both sides to get the variable by itself

58=a

a=58

and to double check we can do this

168=400-4(58) by susbtuting the variable

168=400-232

168=168 correct
