<h3>━━━━━━❃━━━━━━</h3>

<h3>Part one :</h3>

As it is given :

Present age of mom : Present age of son = 6 : 1

Therefore let :

  • Mother's age be 6x

  • Son's age be x

<h3>Part two :</h3>

Ages after 10 year :

  • Mom's age = 6x + 10

  • Son's age = x + 10

<h3>Part three :</h3>

The ages after 10 years are given in rational of 8 : 3.

Which means :

Mom's age after 10 years : Son's age after 10 years = 8 :3.

Now :

\scriptsize \purple{ \boxed{ \scriptsize \dfrac{ \text{Mom's age after 10 years}}{ \text{son's age after 10 years}}= \dfrac{8}{3} }} \star

\\  \\

So :

\small\sf \dashrightarrow \dfrac{6x + 10}{x + 10} =  \sf \dfrac{8}{3}

\\  \\

\small\sf \dashrightarrow \dfrac{3(6x + 10)}{x + 10} =  \sf \dfrac{8}{1}

\\  \\

\small \sf \dashrightarrow \dfrac{18x +30}{x + 10} =  \sf \dfrac{8}{1}

\\  \\

\small\sf \dashrightarrow \dfrac{18x +30}{1} =  \sf \dfrac{8(x + 10)}{1}

\\  \\

\small \sf \dashrightarrow 18x +30=  \sf 8(x + 10)

\\  \\

\small\sf \dashrightarrow 18x +30=  \sf 8x + 80

\\  \\

\small\sf \dashrightarrow 18x - 8x +30=  \sf 80

\\  \\

\small \sf \dashrightarrow 10x +30=  \sf 80

\\  \\

\small \sf \dashrightarrow 10x =  \sf 80 - 30

\\  \\

\small \sf \dashrightarrow 10x =  \sf 50

\\  \\

\small \sf \dashrightarrow  \dfrac{10x}{10}  =  \sf  \dfrac{50}{10}

\\  \\

\small \sf \dashrightarrow  \dfrac{1\cancel0x}{1\cancel0}  =  \sf  \dfrac{5\cancel0}{1\cancel0}

\\  \\

\small\bf \dashrightarrow x = \pink 5

\\

<h3>Part four :</h3>

We know :

\footnotesize \hookrightarrow \sf Son's \: age = x

\footnotesize \hookrightarrow \sf Son's \: age =  \red{5 \: years}

\\  \\

\footnotesize \hookrightarrow \sf Mother's \: age  = 6x

\footnotesize\hookrightarrow \sf Mother's \: age  = 6 \times 5

\footnotesize \hookrightarrow \sf Mother's \: age  =  \bf \red{30 \: years}

Determine the slope and y -intercept for each line shown. Then write the equation of the line (will give Brainliest)
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

1.

y=\frac{1}{4}x+2

m= \frac{1}{4}

b= 2

2.

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+1

m= -\frac{1}{3}

b= 1

3.

y=3x+4

m= 3

b=4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,2) therefore its y-intercept is b=2.

The line rises up 1 unit on the y-axis for every 4 units on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m=1/4.

Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that y=\frac{1}{4}x+2

2. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,1) therefore its y-intercept is b=1.

The line down up 1 unit on the y-axis for every 3 units on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m= -1/3.

Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that    y=-\frac{1}{3}x+1

3. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,4) therefore its y-intercept is b=4.

The line rises up 3 units on the y-axis for every 1 unit on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m=3.

Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that  y=3x+4
