2 years ago, you were 10 and your Mom was 40. 18 years from now, you will be 12+18 or 30 and your Mom will be 42+18 or 60, so you will be half her age which is 30 years old.

How to find the equation of this line?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

y = - \frac{6}{7} x - \frac{10}{7}

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 )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 4) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{-4-2}{3+4} = - \frac{6}{7} , thus

y = - \frac{6}{7} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 4, 2 ), then

2 = \frac{24}{7} + c ⇒ c = 2 - \frac{24}{7} = - \frac{10}{7}

y = - \frac{6}{7} x - \frac{10}{7} ← equation of line

The first three steps in determining the solution set of the system of equations algebraically are shown in the table. y = −x2 +
lianna [129]
You have a system of equations \left \{ {{y = -x^2+2x-9} \atop {y =-6x+6}} \right..

1. Substitude right side of second equation into the left side of the first equation: -6x+6=-x^2+2x-9.

2. Solve this equation:
 x^2-2x+9-6x+6=0, \\ x^2-8x+15=0, \\ D=(-8)^2-4\cdot 1\cdot 15=64-60=4,  \\ \sqrt{D}=2,  \\ x_{1,2}=\dfrac{8\pm 2}{2  } =3,5.

3. Find y:
for x_1=3, y_1=-6\cdot 3+6=-18+6=-12,
for x_2=5, y_2=-6\cdot 5+6=-30+6=-24.

4. The solutions of the system are: (3,-12) and (5,-24).
Answer: Correct choice is A.
