Let's create expressions and equations to model this situation. Let Anthony's age be a.
"Jim is 3 times as old as his cousin, Anthony." Jim's age is 3a.
"The difference in their age is 18." 3a - a = 18
How old is Jim?
Let's solve the above equation for a to first find Anthony's age.
3a - a = 18
2a = 18
a = 9
Remember, Jim's age is represented by the expression 3a. Substitute Anthony's age, 9, into the expression to find Jim's age.
3a
3(9)
27
Answer:
Jim is 27 years old.
Answer:
![y=\frac{1}{4} x-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept from is represented as :
![y = mx + b](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%20%3D%20mx%20%2B%20b)
So, plugging in the numbers it would look like this :
![y=\frac{1}{4} x-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20x-5)
Hope this helps. Please mark brainliest!
What the question? Tell me then I can maybe help
Solve for y
minus 10x from both sides
5y<-10x+15
divide both sides by 5
y<-2x+3
