Lets use O to represent Merideth's age and X to represent Miles's age, 
So what do we know? we know that miles is 3 years younger than twice merideth's age so 2(O)=X+3  and we also know that the sum of their ages is 24 O+X=24 using these equations we can input values until we find the values that work so if miles is 15 and meridith is 9 than 2(9)=15+3.   18=18
9+15=24 these values work for both equations so merideth is 9 and miles is 15

Classify the triangle with 9, 15, 19 as an acute right obtuse or not a triangle
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Hence the correct option is the last one . The triangle is an obtuse angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the sum of any two sides added together is greater than the third side hence this is a triangle.

ii) it is<em><u> not</u></em> a right angled triangle as \sqrt{9^{2} + 15^{2} } \neq  19 and \sqrt{9^{2} + 15^{2} } <  19

iii) the triangle is not acute from ii) above

iv) the triangle is an obtuse triangle from ii) above.

Ellen makes and sells bookmarks. She graphs the number of bookmarks sold compared to the total money earned. What is the rate of
VashaNatasha [74]

IfIf she graphs the number of bookmarks sold compared to the total money earned. The rate of change for the function graphed to the left is: 5/2.

<h3>Rate of change</h3>

Based on the graph the coordinate are:

(4,0), (8,10), (12,20)

Using slope formula to find the rate of change Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1

Hence,

(x1-y1)=(4,0) & (x2 -y2)= (8,10)

Let plug in the formula

Slope=10-0/8-4

Slope=10/4

Slope=5/2

Therefore If she graphs the number of bookmarks sold compared to the total money earned. The rate of change for the function graphed to the left is: 5/2.
