(3,52)(7,108)
slope = (108 - 52) / (7 - 3) = 56/4 = 14
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 14
(3,52)...x = 3 and y = 52
sub and find b, the y int (the original amount of cards)
52 = 3(14) + b
52 = 42 + b
52 - 42 = b
10 = b
so ur equation is y = 14x + 10....with x being the number of years and y being the total cards. <== ur equation is y = 14x + 10
He started with 10 cards....and has been adding 14 cards every year.
so after 10 years...
y = 14(10) + 10
y = 140 + 10
y = 150 <== after 10 years, he will have 150 cards
Let us always base on the present age. We denote this by x. Now, the age he had 2 years ago would then be denoted as (x-2). Let's equate this to 20 years old.
x - 2 = 20
x = 20 + 2
x = 22 years old
He should be 22 years old now.
Let's check the other condition. After 1 year, his age should be (x+1). Let's equate this to 23 years old.
x + 1 = 23
x = 23 - 1
x = 22
Thus, this is possible if Reuben is 22 years old as of the present.
Hello!
Let's solve our equation below.
7p-4=8
First we add 4 to both sides.
7p=12
We divide both sides by 7.
p≈1.71
I hope this helps!

Answer:
24.7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a Pythagorean theorem question
The ladder is the hypotenuse or c
the distance from the wall is a leg or a
and the wall is the other leg or b
a² + b² = c²
a² + 17² = 30²
a² + 289 = 900
-289 -289
b² = 611
√ √
b = √611
b = 24.7 feet
