"I am 3 times as old as Sue is," Frank said to Ann. "On the other hand, I am 15 years older than John while Sue is 1 year younge
ahrayia [7]

Frank = F

Sue = S

John = J

F=3*S

F = J+15

S = J-1

If you want to find Frank's age, then his age would be equivalent to John's plus 15 years.

A.-Would not work because Frank is three times Sue's age, not John's (left hand side of the equation).

B.-Notice that the right hand side of the equation is equivalent to Sue's age, which we know is John-1, however it is currently written to be "three times Sue's age minus one" which would give us John's age, plus two more years than his actual age on the left hand side.

C.-Frank's age is equal to John's plus fifteen (right side of the equation) and Frank is equal to Sue's age times 3. But, if Sue is in terms of Johns, then Sue's age is John's minus one. Therefore, Frank's age is equal to three times Sue's age of John minus one, which is the left-hand side of our equation.


Therefore C is the answer. C:

Evaluate the following functions at x = 10<br>g(x)=√(x+1)​
V125BC [204]

g(x)=√(x+1)

Let's plug 10 in for x

g(10) = √(10+1)

Simplify the exponents

g(10) = √(11)

This is the exact form but it can also be expressed as a decimal.

√(11) = 3.31662479

You can simplify as needed

Answer:

Let's solve for x.

4x+5y=7

Step 1: Add -5y to both sides.

4x+5y+−5y=7+−5y

4x=−5y+7

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4=−5y+7/4

x=−5/4 y+ 7/4

Answer: for the first one x=−5/4 y+ 7/4

3x−2y=−12

Step 1: Add 2y to both sides.

3x−2y+2y=−12+2y

3x=2y−12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3=2y−12/3

x=2/3y−4

Answer:

x=2/3y−4
