Answer:

11/18.

Dan is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial fraction is

x / 2x-4

Adding 3/3 we have

x+3 / 2x-1 = 2/3

Cross multiply:

3(x+3) = 2(2x-1)

3x + 9 = 4x - 2

9 + 2 = 4x - 3x

11 = x,

So the original fraction was 11 / 2(11) - 4

= 11/18.

If Dans age is d then Lois's age = 4d.

So 4d + d  = 40

5d = 40

d = 8.

So Dan is 8 years old.

A line passes through (-1,5) and (1,3) what is the equation of the line
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

y = -x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1,5)...x1 = -1 and y1 = 5

(1,3)....x2 = 1 and y2 = 3

slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (3 - 5) / (1 - (-1) = -2 / (1 + 1) = -2/2 = -1

y = mx + b

slope(m) = -1

u can use either of ur points...I will use (1,3)...x = 1 and y = 3

now we sub and find b, the y int

3 = -1(1) + b

3 = -1 + b

3 + 1 = b

4 = b

ur equation is : y = -x + 4 <===

Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

x=1/4

y = -2

(1/4, -2)

b

Step-by-step explanation:

4x -y =3

y =-8x

substitute y =-8x into the first equation.  Everywhere you see y put 8x

4x -y =3

4x - (-8x) =3

4x+8x=3

combine like terms

12x = 3

divide by 12

12x/12x = 3 /12

x = 1/4

now we need to find y

y = -8x

y = -8 * 1/4

y = -2
