Let current age be x, next we construct the inequalities for the age:
<span>Four-fifths of my current age is greater than three-quarters of my age one year from now.
</span>thus when we add 1 year to 3/4 of our current age and set the inequality
4x/5>3x/4+1......i

<span>Four-fifths of my current age is also greater than five-sixths of my age one year ago.
Thus when we subtract 1 from 5x/6 and set the inequality we get
4x/5>5x/6-1.......ii
solving the inequalities we obtain:
</span>4x/5>3x/4+1
x/20>1
hence multiplying both sides by 20 we obtain:
x>20

also

4x/5>5x/6-1
4x/5-5x/5>-1
-x/30>-1
multiplying both sides by 30 we get:
-x>-30
thus
x<30
therefore the possible values of my age will lie in the interval:
20<x<30
Thus our age is in the interval
(20,30)

<h3>Answer:    y = (3/2)x + 0</h3>

This is the same as  y = (3/2)x

=============================================================

Work Shown:

Find the slope of the line through (x1,y1) = (-2,-3) and (x2,y2) = (2,3)

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (3 - (-3))/(2 - (-2))

m = (3 + 3)/(2 + 2)

m = 6/4

m = 3/2

The slope is the fraction 3/2. This is going to be in front of the x, or to the left of the x.

----------

Plug m = 3/2 and (x1,y1) = (-2,-3) into the point slope formula. Solve for y.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-3) = (3/2)(x - (-2))

y + 3 = (3/2)(x + 2)

y + 3 = (3/2)x + (3/2)(2)

y + 3 = (3/2)*x + 3

y + 3 - 3 = (3/2)*x + 3 - 3

y = (3/2)x + 0

The y intercept is zero. This matches up with the fact the graph crosses the y axis at y = 0.

Is the statement true or false? If false, give a counterexample.
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

D. false; if a = 1, b = 2, and c = 3, then 1(2 + 3) ≠ 1(2) + 2(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A is false, because the a is being distributed/ being multiplied to all terms inside the parenthesis, and not the term b.

B is also false. There is no indicated negative signs.

C is also false because 1(1 + 1) is EQUAL to 1(1) + 1(1)

D is true.
