Hello Kiddo. 

This question is a bit confusing to me, but I think I grasped the concept. 
1. x best represents Sarah's mom's age. 
2. x - 24 best represents Sarah's mom's age minus how much younger Sarah is than her mom. 
3. The expression would look a little like this:
2x-24 = 68
    + 24  +24
2x = 92 
/2     /2
x = 46.

Which means, Sarah is 22 and her mom is 46 years of age. 
If you need more clarification, I'd be more than happy to elaborate further.

vfiekz [6]

Answer: y - 5 = -5/6 (x - 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a linear equation is written using the slope of the line and one point in the line. From part A, the slope of the line representing this situation is m = -5/6.

Since x represents the number of 10-student groups and y represents the number of 12-student groups, the combination of 18 groups of 10 students and 5 groups of 12 students is represented by the point (18,5).

Write the word sentence as an inequality. Then solve the inequality.
Agata [3.3K]
The solution is x>18.

The problem tells us that 3 less than a number: x-3
is more than 15. >15
So the inequality is x-3>15. When we isolate x to simply the inequality, we add 3 to both sides, to get x>18.
