Answer:

It is not possible for Janet to have won 10 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of games Janet won.

We know that Nadia has won twice the number of games Janet has and the sum of the games Nadia and Janet have won together is 24.

Then, we express this situation with this equation:

So, let's check if it is possible for Janet to have won 10 games. Substitute  into the expression:

Therefore, it is not possible for Janet to have won 10 games.

Find the value of r so the line passes through each pair of points has the give slopes
Art [367]

Answer:

r=64

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's start with what we have. If we use y=mx+b here's what we can put in:

y=-4x+b

Then we can use one of the given points to find the y-intercept. Since the only complete one is (12,10), we'll use that.

10=-4(12)+b\\10=-48+b\\58=b

So now we have y=-4x+58.

Now we can use our other point with the missing y-value and solve for y.

r=-4(-2)+58\\r=64

So the missing value is 64.

Hope this helps!
