He is 68.
Even though he is half your age, that doesn't mean that he will be half your age all your life. That just means he will be X years younger.
If you need an example:
Your brother was two when you are four. So when you become 6, your brother will be come 4. The fact that he is half your age doesn't really matter once you start growing up, because he will never be half you age again.
The base value is the current value
Good luck! I hope this helps!
Answer:
y = 2x + 5+2 graph would shift by 2 unit.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : y = 2x + 5 .
To find :If you wanted to shift the graph up what would be equation .
Solution : We have given that y = 2x + 5 .
BY the transformation rule ; if f(x) +k then graph would shift up by k units .
Then to shift the graph of y = 2x + 5 up we need to add something in 5
Like y = 2x + 5+2
Then graph would shift by 2 unit.
Therefore, y = 2x + 5+2 graph would shift by 2 unit.
Solve for x:
10 (x + 2) = 5 (x + 8)
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
10 x + 20 = 5 (x + 8)
Expand out terms of the right hand side:
10 x + 20 = 5 x + 40
Subtract 5 x from both sides:
(10 x - 5 x) + 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 40
10 x - 5 x = 5 x:
5 x + 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 40
5 x - 5 x = 0:
5 x + 20 = 40
Subtract 20 from both sides:
5 x + (20 - 20) = 40 - 20
20 - 20 = 0:
5 x = 40 - 20
40 - 20 = 20:
5 x = 20
Divide both sides of 5 x = 20 by 5:
(5 x)/5 = 20/5
5/5 = 1:
x = 20/5
The gcd of 20 and 5 is 5, so 20/5 = (5×4)/(5×1) = 5/5×4 = 4:
Answer: x = 4
