Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have three people
jamal = x (since im guessing hes the youngest)
wesley= x+1
John= x+2
the formula you would use is x+x+1+x+2=108
when you simplify that you get 3X+3=108
you subtract the 3 from 108 which leaves you with 3X=105
divide that by 3 which makes x=35
so
jamal is 35
wesley is 36
john is 37
1degree every 20 minutes or
3degrees per hour

Answer:
y = - 3x + 21
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - 3x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 3
Parallel lines have equal slopes , then
y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (7, 0 ) into the partial equation
0 = - 21 + c ⇒ c = 0 + 21 = 21
y = - 3x + 21 ← equation of parallel line
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations appear to be ...
- 12x +4y = 152
- 32x +12y = 420
These can be solved for y using Cramer's rule:
y = (152(32) -420(12))/(4(32) -12(12)) = -176/-16 = 11

<em>Comment on Cramer's Rule</em>
For equations ...
ax +by =c
dx +ey = f
The solutions are ...
x = (bf -ey)/(bd -ea)
y = (cd -fa)/(bd -ea) . . . . note the denominators are the same expression
Once you memorize the pattern of products, this can be the simplest way to solve a pair of equations--especially if you only need one of the variable values.
