So
Jon's age=j
mary age=m


m+j=27
m+2 times j=40
m+2j=40
M+j=27
ssubtract j from both sides
m=27-j
subsitute 27-j for m
27-j+2j=40
27+j=40
subtract 27 fromboth sdies
j=13

subsitue
13+m=27
subtract 13
m=14

mary=14
john=13

J+M=27
2J+M=40

J=27-M

2(27-M)+M=40
54-2M+M=40
54-M=40
-M=-14
M=14

2J+14=40
2J=26
J=13

John is 13 years old
Mary is 14 years old

According to the scatterplot below, which statement is correct? A graph titled Courses Completed versus Remaining Credits Needed
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a graph titled Courses Completed versus Remaining Credits Needed to Graduate has courses completed on the x-axis and Credits need to graduate on the y-axis.

Points plotted are (4, 110), (8, 76), (16, 63), (20, 53), (24, 33).

Since, x-axis represents the courses completed, therefore the input, or independent variable is courses completed.

Since, y-axis represents the Credits need to graduate, therefore the output, or dependent variable is Credits need to graduate.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

A taxicab service charges a flat fee of $7 plus an additional $1.25 per mile driven. Show the relationship between the total cos
Zarrin [17]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Flat fee of taxicab=$7

Cost of one mile=$1.25

1.We have to show that relationship between total cost and the number of miles driven.

2.We have to find independent variable and dependent variable

3.We have to write an equation to model the relationship and make a  table to show the cost of 4 to 10 miles.

1.Let x be the number of miles driven by taxicab and total cost y of taxicab.

According to question

y=1.25x+7

This is a relation between number of miles drive and total cost.

2. Independent variable : It is that variable which does not depend on value of another variable .

Dependent variable : it is that variable which depend on value of  another variable.

We can see that y depend on x and value of x does not depend on  any value.

Therefore, y is dependent variable and x is independent variable.

Substitute x=4 then we get

y=1.25(4)+7=$12

Substitute x=5 then  get

y=1.25(5)+7=$13.25

y=1.25(6)+7=\$14.5

y=1.25(7)+7=$15.75

y=1.25(8)+7=$17

y=1.25(9)+7=$18.25

y=1.25(10)+7=$19.5
