Answer:
Dan is 29. Cary is 36.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Dan's age now be D.
Let Cary's age now be C.
"Cary is 7 years older than Dan."
C = D + 7
"In 7 years the sum of their ages will be 79. "
In 7 years, the ages of Dan and Cary will be D + 7 and C + 7, respectively.
D + 7 + C + 7 = 79
C + D + 14 = 79
C + D = 65
C = D + 7
The last two equations in bold above form a system of equations. Since the second equation is already solved for C, we use the substitution method.
D + 7 + D = 65
2D + 7 = 65
2D = 58
D = 29
C = D + 7
C = 29 + 7
C = 36
Answer: Dan is 29. Cary is 36.

Answer:
I believe it is y=147
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we find the slope of the given line.
<span>3x − 4y = 7
-4y = -3x + 7
y = (3/4)x - 7/4
The slope of the given line is 3/4.
The slope of the parallel line is also 3/4.
Now we need the equation of the line that has slope 3/4 and passes through point (-4, -2),
We use the point-slope form of the equation of a line.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - (-2) = (3/4)(x - (-4))
y + 2 = (3/4)(x + 4) <---- check option E. Is the fraction 3/4 not there?
y + 2 = (3/4)x + 3
y = (3/4)x + 1
4y = 3x + 4
3x - 4y = -4 <------ this is choice B.
