J + m = 84
j = m - 24

m - 24 + m = 84
2m - 24 = 84
2m = 84 + 24
2m = 108
m = 108/2
m = 54...the mom is 54

j = m - 24
j = 54 - 24
j = 30 <==== Jessie is 30

Okay, to begin. Jessie is 24 years younger than her mother. So what we should first do is to subtract every possible age by 24 years. Which leaves us with 30, 6, and 4. Now if the sum of their ages is 84, we need to take all of the possibilities and add them to the other possibilities I've created.

30 + 54 = 84
6 + 30 = 36
4 + 28 = 32

Therefore, Jessie is 30 years old.

Like terms and unlike terms
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

In algebra, like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match.

Unlike terms are two or more terms that are not like terms, i.e. they do not have the same variables or powers. The order of the variables does not matter unless there is a power. For example, 8xyz2 and −5xyz2 are like terms because they have the same variables and power while 3abc and 3ghi are unlike terms because they have different variables. Since the coefficient doesn't affect likeness, all

Which graph shape represents the polar curve r = 1 + 4sin(θ)?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A cardioid

Step-by-step explanation:

A cardioid is a curve in the shape of a heart traced by a point on the circumference of a circle as it rolls around a fixed circle of the same radius.

The equation of vertical cardioid is r=a ± a\sin \theta

Given the polar curve is r= 1+ 4 \sin \theta

This is an equation of vertical cardioid.

So, it represents a cardioid.
