please help Maggie's brother is 3 years younger than twice her age. The sum of their ages is 30.

How old is Maggie

Answers

Answer 1
i’m not sure if this is correct but this is the way i would solve it.

first, make an equation with the given information

2x-3=30

Then, add three to both sides

2x=33

Finally, divide both sides by 2

x= 16.5


x represents the age of maggie so all you have to do is plug the solution into the equation to check your answer.

2(16.5)-3= 30
Answer 2
I think he is 33 hope this helps

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{4}\ x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

A direct proportion is a relation between variables where their ratio is a constant value. This means that if y and x are proportional, then:

y = kx

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

The value of k can be calculated if we know a point (x,y) that belongs to the graph. Substituting the point (-12,3):

3 = -12k

Solving for k:

[tex]k=-\frac{3}{12}=-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Thus, the corresponding equation is:

[tex]\boxed{\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{4}\ x}[/tex]

Answer: (2x - xy - x^2) / (y + x)(y - x)

Step-by-step explanation: *graded correct

First simplify:              2x / y^2 - x^2 = 2x / (y+x)(y-x)

Next subtract x / y-x: 2x / (y+x)(y-x) - x / y-x

Get:                              x(2-y-x) / (y+x)(y-x)

Simplify numerator :   (2x - xy - x^2) / (y+x)(y-x)

Answer:

  76

Step-by-step explanation:

For age 'a', the special number was supposed to be ...

  2a +4

Tammi's mother actually calculated it as ...

  2(a +4) = 2a +8

a value that is (2a+8) -(2a+4) = 4 more than it was supposed to be.

The special number was supposed to be 80 -4 = 76.

Complete the equation of the line through (1,4) (2,2)

Answers

The slope- intercept form of the equation of a line is : y = mx + b

The slope is represented by m and the y-intercept is represented by b.

You can use the coordinates of the two points to find the slope:

m = (y 2 - y 1)

 (x 2 - x 1)

For this problem:

m =   (4 - 2 ) =   2  

(1 - 2)     -1

To determine the y-intercept , substitute the coordinates of either point into the slope-intercept equation using a slope of -2:

y = mx + b

y = -2 • x + b

Using (1,4):

4 = -2 • 1 + b

4 = -2 + b

b = 6

The equation of the line will be :  y = -2•x + 6

The graph of a function f is shown below. Use the zeros and the turning points of the graph to find the rule for f.

B.f(x) = −x4 + 5x2 − 4

C.f(x) = x3 + x2 − 4x + 4

D.f(x) = x4 − 5x2 + 4


Answers

Answer:

Answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the zeros of the graph we should have y=0 when we put x=-2, x=-1, x=1, x=2

Only the function on option D works, so the answer is D

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

because 25×11= 275 and 500-275 =225

50x4=200

225-200=25 you can buy 4 and 25$ is left over

Answers

Answer:

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

2L + 3S = 83

 

4L + 8S = 197

 

Multiplies the top equation by -2.

-4L + -6S = -166

 

4l  + 8S = 197

 

 

Adding them together...

 

2S = 31

 

S = 31/2 = 15.5

 

Plugging into the first equation:

 

 2L + 3S = 83

 

 2L + 3(15.5) = 83

 

2L + 46.5 = 83

 

2L = 83 - 46.5

 

2L = 36.5

 

L = 36.5/2 = 18.25

 

check:

 

2L + 3S = 2(18.25) + 3(15.5) = 36.5 + 46.5 = 83

 

4L + 8S = 4(18.25) + 8(15.5) = 73 + 124 = 197

 

The Large box weighs 18.25

The small box weighs 15.5

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (2,3) and is perpendicular to the line x = -1

Answers

Answer:

y = 3

Explanation:

Any equation of a line that is written as x = # (meaning x equaling whatever number) is vertical on the graph. Therefore, x = -1 is a vertical line. And since x equals -1, all the points on the graph must have an x-value of -1.

We need to find a line that is perpendicular to it - and what would be perpendicular to a vertical line would be a horizontal line. Horizontal lines are represented by the equation y = # (meaning y equaling whatever number). Whatever number is written there is the y-value of all the points the horizontal line intersects.

We know that the line has to pass through (2,3). Therefore, take the y-value of that point - which is 3 - giving us y = 3.

Answer:

6.7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We apply Pythagoras Theorem twice.

First we find out the diagonal of the base of the cuboid.

The diagonal of the base = sqrt (2^2+4^2) = sqrt (20).

Then we find out AB by applying Pythagoras Theorem.

AB^2 = 5^2 + [sqrt (20)]^2

AB^2 = 45

AB = 6.7cm (correct to 1 decimal place)
