Answer:

Sue is 6 and Mary is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

let Sue's age be x then Mary is x + 4 and the sum of their ages is

x + x + 4 = 16

2x + 4 = 16 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 6

x + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10

then Mary is 10 and Sue is 6

Given the quadriatic equation
vazorg [7]

Answer:

⇒  The given quadratic equation is x2−kx+9=0, comparing it with ax2+bx+c=0

∴  We get, a=1b=−k,c=9

⇒  It is given that roots are real and distinct.

∴  b2−4ac>0

⇒  (−k)2−4(1)(9)>0

⇒  k2−36>0

⇒  k2>36

⇒  k>6 or k<−6

∴  We can see values of k given in question are correct.

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-3, 7) and (2, -6)
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The slope of the line passing through the points (-3, 7) and (2, -6) is -13/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line based on two points.

m = y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁

Substitute the values

m = -6 - 7/2 - (-3)

Simplify.

m = -13/5

The slope of this line is -13/5.
