X = Juan's age
y = Eliza's age
Some key words/phrases we can use to help us make the equation are:
-is (whatever comes after this word usually equals the end result, or what it equals)
-two years younger
-than
-half her brother's age
.
just break it down :)
x/2 (half her brother's age) - 2 (two years younger) = y (Eliza is...)
| basically,
v
x/2 - 2 = y
So if Juan is 6, then we need to plug in 6 for x.
6/2 - 2 = y
3 - 2 = y
1 = y
ANSWER: Eliza is one year old.
Answer:
10.63
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
10 blocks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the unit rate.
Therefore, 10 blocks weigh 70 ounces.
If f(x)=x^2-8x-20 then
dy/dx=2x-8 and d2y/dx2=2
A) Since acceleration is a constant positive the parabola opens upward.
B) Since acceleration is a constant positive the parabola will have a vertex at an absolute minimum
C) The vertex will occur when dy/dx=0, 2x-8=0, 2x=8, x=4
So the axis of symmetry is the vertical line x=4.
The vertex is y(4)=-36, corresponding to the vertex point (4,-36)
The y-intercept occurs when x=0, y(0)=-20, so the y-intercept is the point (0,-20)
Answer (x is the money Harper found):
- Equation: (35 + x) = (41 - 2x)
- Solution: x = 2
I hope this helps!
