Answer:

Sydney's age is 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Devaughn be D

And Sydney be S

D=S+8..... equation 1

D+S=64...... equation 2

Substitute equation 1 to equation 2

S+8+S=64

2S+8=64

2S=64-8

2S=56

S=56/2

S=28

Hope it helps

Good luck

Let’s take Sydney age as x
And Devaughn age as 8+x
Equation will be
8+x+x=64
8+2x=64
2x=64-8
2x=56
x=28
Therefore Sydney is 28years old

Which graph represents y as a function of x?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Bottom left.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for any of them to be the graph of a function you would need that given a value of x, you get no more than one value of y. Zero is fine, you just picked an x out of the domain.

In layman's terms it means that if you grab a ruler, a piece of paper, a pen, and you scan the graph moving the edge parallel to the y axis (ie, vertically) you are allowed to touch the graph only once. Top right is out. Bottom left is ok, bottom right is not: you have infinite points of contact in there.

Top left would be fine, if it wasn't for x = 1. In there you have two values marked with a solid dot. That makes it not the graph of a function.

Values of x in the equation 10x^2-64=36+6x^2
NISA [10]
10x^2-6x^2 = 4x^2
-64-36 = 100
4x^2 -100 = 0
(2x -10)(2x+10)
X = 2/10 and x = - 2/10

Please Help Fast!! 15 Point and brainiest if correct
iragen [17]

If a < b, then dividing both sides by a positive number will not flip the inequality sign. The inequality flips if you divide both sides by a negative number.

So if a < b, then a/3 < b/3 as well.

Triangle RST has vertices located at R (2, 3), S (4, 4), and T (5, 0).
LiRa [457]

The length of the sides are 2.24, 4.24 and 4.12 units while the slope are 0.5, -1 and -4.

<h3>Linear equation</h3>

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

For RS:

  • Length = \sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}=\sqrt{(4-3)^2+(4-2)^2}=2.24   \\&#10;\\&#10;slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{4-3}{4-2}=0.5

For RT:

  • Length = \sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}=\sqrt{(0-3)^2+(5-2)^2}=4.24   \\&#10;\\&#10;slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{0-3}{5-2}=-1

For ST:

  • Length = \sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}=\sqrt{(0-4)^2+(5-4)^2}=4.12   \\&#10;\\&#10;slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{0-4}{5-4}=-4

The length of the sides are 2.24, 4.24 and 4.12 units while the slope are 0.5, -1 and -4.
