There are three groups of people: 25 years old and younger, between 25 to 50, and 50 years old and older. Their fractions must equal to 1 because these three together form the whole.

1 = 1/3 + 2/7 + x
where x is the fraction for people ages 25 to 50 years old
x = 8/21

So, the actual number of people ages 25 to 50 years old is:

84(8/21) = 32 people

Answer:

y=2x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept formula → y=mx+b

\frac{6-2}{0-(-2)} =\frac{4}{2} =2\\

so 2 is your slope and the point (0,6) crosses the y-intercept at 6 since x = 0

plugin 2 for m (or the slope) and 6 for b (y-intercept)

your answer → y=2x+6
