Answer:

dean = 10

franco = 50

helen = 2

steps

you want to get the age of one of the people first

'is' means equal

'older than' means plus

'sum' means total by adding

d

f = 5d

d = 8 + h

d + f + h = 62

make sure there is 1 letter to solve for

d = 8 + h -> h = d - 8

f = 5d

d = d

d + f + h = 62

d + (5d) + (d-8)

7d - 8 = 62

7d = 70

d = 10

f = 50

h = 2

Solve the System using elimination. <br><br> 5x-2y=15<br> 7x+7y=-28
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

x=1 y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

7(5x-2y=15) --->      35x-14y=105

2(7x+7y=-28) -->  + <u>14x+14y=-56</u>

                               49x=49  --->x=1

5(1)-2y=15 ---> 5-2y=15 ---> -2y=10 ---> y=-5

K is the slope of the line formed by connecting the points.
Use slope formula:
\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
where the 2 points are the end points of the line (First and last going Left to right)
(x_1,y_1) = (2,7)  \\ (x_2,y_2) = (8,28)
Substitute into slope formula
k= \frac{28-7}{8-2} = \frac{21}{6} = \frac{7}{2}
You can check if this is correct by going back to graph and going "up 7" and "over 2" to get from one point to the next.
