Using equations to solve the word problem, Katherine's age is 8 years

<h3>Word Problem</h3>

Word problem are often mathematical problem that are represented in words and sometimes can be solved using an equation.

To solve this problem, we have to represent the problem using mathematical equations;

Let;

Katherine's age = x²

Alexandra = 5(x + 1)

Sum of their age = 109

5(x + 1) + x² = 109

5x + 5 + x² = 109

x² + 5x - 104 = 0

Solving for the equation; x = 8

Katherine's age is 8

50 POINTS!! HELP!
Minchanka [31]

i dont have time to do all of it (sorry)

but this is how you do the point and slope questions:

use the equation: y-y1 = m(x - x1)

y1 is the y point you are given

x1 is the x point you are given

m is your slope

substitute all of those in from the question

the first one is:

y --4 = -5/6(x-8)

-- turns into a plus so the answer would be

y+4 = -5/6(x-8)

Cable has 24 pennies he has hafe as many nickels as pennies he has 5 more dimes than nickels he has 6 fewer quarters than dimes
Andreyy89
Pennies (P) = 24
Nickels = 1/2P
Dimes = 1/2P + 5
Quarters = (1/2P + 5) -6

Therefore...

Nickels = 1/2P = 1/2(24)= 12
Dimes = 12 + 5 = 17
Quarters = 17 - 6 = 11
