An absolute value is the distance from 0 on a number line so it must be a positive number, and so  because of that it is impossible to get or equal -1, this equation has no solution.

in the ambrose family the ages of the three children are three consecutive even integers . if the age of the youngest child is r
klemol [59]

The ages are consecutive even numbers.
The youngest child is  (x+3) years old.
Every even number is 2 more than the one before it.
So the three ages are

           (x + 3),  (x + 5),  and  (x + 7).

Their sum is    x+3  +  x+5  +  x+7  =  3x + 15

But we're told that their sum is  42, so we can write

                                              3x + 15 = 42  <== the equation

Subtract 15 from each side:  3x         =  27

Divide each side by  3 :          x         =   9    <== the solution

So the three ages are  12,  14,  and  16.

The oldest child is  16  years old.

Solve the system of linear equations using either substitution or the elimination method.
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

x = -1

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 1

y = -x + 1

y = -x + 1  (Multiply this by -1)

y = 3x +5

-y = x - 1

y = 3x +5

0 = 4x + 4

4x = -4

x = -1

x + y = 1

-1 + y = 1

y = 2

Marcus earned $54,000 last year when the Social Security tax was 6.2% of income up to $94,200. His Medicare tax was 1.45%. How m
AysviL [449]

Answer

Social security tax amount = $3348

Medicare tax amount = $743

Step by step explanation

The amount earned by Marcus = $54000

Social security tax = 6.2% = 6.2/100 = 0.062

Social security tax amount = 54000*0.062

Social security tax amount = $3348

Medicare tax = 1.45% = 1.45/100 = 0.0145

Medicare tax amount = 54000*0.0145

Medicare tax amount = $743

Hope this will help you.
