Answer: Brandon is 24, Michael is 72.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let m represent Michael
Let b represent Brandon
Then,
m = 3b <-----------"Michael is 3 times as old as Brandon."
m - 18 = 9(b - 18) <-----------"18 years ago, Michael was 9 times as old as Brandon."
3b - 18 = 9b - 162
-18 = 6b - 162
144 = 6b
Michael is 3 times as old as Brandon. Also, 18 years ago, Brandon would have been 6 and Michael would have been 54 meaning Michael was 9 times as old as Brandon 18 years ago.
Answer:
y=55 when x is 33
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the direct variation formula:
or 
Insert the given values:
To simplify the equation, cross multiply:
Isolate the variable. Divide both sides by 9:
Therefore, when x is 33, y is 55.

I am thinking of a rectangle that has the two sides parallel to one another. Set the two functions equal to one another, so
9x-14=7x+4
After a bunch of algebra and math magic, 2x=18 => x=9
So if you just insert 9 into both equations, both will end up with a value of 67, so it ends up looking like a right triangle. Don't do that. Instead, to find the rectangle widths, use 9x-4 (+10 added to intercept) instead, while keeping 7x+4, so that the intercepts match.
LN) 9x-4 = 9(9)-4 = 81-4 = 77
MP) 7(9)+4 = 63+4 = 67
*If you are also looking for the diagonals, use Pythagorean Theorem 77^2+67^2=(hypotenuse)^2*

Answer:
Let S = Sum after 13 years
So = amount invested
t = time in years
i = annual interest rate = .0325
The S = So(1+i)t = $2,200(1.0325)13 = $3,334.21
