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

koban [17]

Answer:

  3x -7y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Changing the constant in a linear equation like this only changes the y-intercept. It has no effect on the slope of the line. So, we can change the constant from 4 to 0 and we will have a line with the same slope, parallel to the original, but with a different y-intercept.

The "standard form" of the equation of a line has the leading coefficient positive. We can make that be the case by using the multiplication property of equality, multiplying both sides of the equation by -1.

Parallel line:

  -3x +7y = 0

In standard form:

  3x -7y = 0

Nth term of this sequence please 18, 16, 14, 12
Annette [7]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf -2n+20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s find the common difference.

The common difference can be found by subtracting a term in the sequence with the previous term.

\sf d=16-18\\d=-2

Apply formula for the \sf n^{th} term of an arithmetic sequence.

\sf a_n=a_1+dn-d

\sf a_1 is the first term of the sequence.

\sf d is the common difference.

\sf a_n=18+-2n-(-2)

\sf a_n=18+-2n+2

\sf a_n=-2n+20
