Answer:
<h2>12x - 20y = -9</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of an equation of a line:
We have
Convert
<em>multiply both sides by 10</em>
<em>subtract 24x from both sides</em>
<em>change the signs</em>
<em>divide both sides by 2</em>
I don't have a clue what this a0 at the right stands for, but if we neglected it, we can solve the problem.
So the answer would be 25.
Hope this helps.
Mike age is 3 less then twice the age of his brother nuke.
M = Mike's age now
N = Nuke's age now
M = 2N - 3
Ten years ago, four times nuke's age was one more mike's age.
M-10 = Mike's age 10 years ago
N-10 = Muke's age 10 years ago
4(N - 10) = 1 + M -10
what are their present ages
find M and N
substitute M = 2N - 3 into 4(N - 10) = 1 + M -10:
4(N - 10) = 1 + [2N - 3] - 10
4N - 40 = 2N - 12
2N = 28
N = 14
M = 2(14) - 3 = 28 - 3 = 25
Mike is 25 and Nuke is 14.
check:
4(14 - 10) = 4(4) = 16 = 26 -10 = 1 + 25 - 10
