Given:
Jennifer and Jane are best friends. They placed a map of their town on a coordinate grid and found the point at which each of their house lies. If Jennifer's house lies at (2, 12) and Jane's house is at (16, 2) and they wanted to meet in the middle.
Required:
Answer:
d.
Step-by-step explanation:
Left line is defined when x < 1 (x is less than 1). The point is not full and that means that x = 1 is not included.
Right line is defined when x is greater or equal to one x ≥ 1.
Options that have x < 1 and x ≥ 1 are b and d, so the answer is one of those.
Equations of the lines are in slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
Right line has steeper slope than left line, so the slope of right line will have bigger absolute value. That is the case with option d. (Left line has slope -1 and right one has slope -2, absolute value of right slope is bigger.)
You could also check with y-intercepts. Left line has y-intercept at y = 2 and left line is defined when x < 1. Only option d meets these conditions.

Given:
3 kids
72 is the product of their ages.
There is a youngest child.
This means that all three are of different ages. We need to factor 72 into 3 integers.
Let us use prime factorization:
72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 = 9
9 ÷ 3 = 3
Prime factors are: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 OR 2³ x 3²
3 ages.
eldest = 3³ = 9
middle = 2² = 4
youngest = 2¹ = 2
2 x 4 = 8
8 x 9 = 72
