We have to find b first:
3 = -3/2(10)+b
3 = -15+b
18 = b
Now right the equation, your slope will be the same one....
Y = -3/2x + 18
B. Up
Because a positive ‘a’ value will make the parabola open upwards, and because the power is 2 (even) both sides will open up in a ‘U’ shape
Let Mary's age be x.
Paul is three times as old as Mary, so Paul's age would be 3x.
Peter is four times as old as Mary, so Peter's age would be 4x.
The sum of their ages is 64
⇒ Paul's age+ Peter's age+ Mary's age= 64
⇒ 3x+ 4x+ x= 64
⇒ 8x= 64
⇒ x= 64/8
⇒ x= 8
Paul's age is: 3x= 3*8= 24
Peter's age is: 4x= 4*8= 32
Final answer: Paul is 24 years old.
Peter is 32 years old.
Mary is 8 years old.
Hope this helps~
Yes.??? dont really Know sorry
