Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the ages of a Mother and her son is 78 , three years ago the mother is five times as old as the son, what is their present ages?

To solve this , let the age of the mother be x and the age of the son be y , from the first statement :

x + y = 78

Three years ago , the mother will be x- 3 and the son will be y - 3 , from the second statement:

x - 3 = 5 ( y-3)

x- 3 = 5y - 15

x - 5y = -12

The resulting equations are

x + y = 78

x - 5y = -12

This is called a simultaneous linear equation , that means it is a linear equation.

The side of a square is xcm , if the difference between the area and the perimeter is 12 , find the legth of its side.

Interpretation:

The formula for the area of a square is l^{2} and the perimeter is 4l , from the question , we have

x^{2} - 4x = 12

This is not a linear equation , it is simply a quadratic equation , so the situation is non linear

I really don't understand this I need help
Salsk061 [2.6K]
In looking at it I would guess it is asking which of the points is on the line? To answer that you would have to take each point an plug it into the equation and see if it is true.

3x - 7 = y

A(9,20)  
3(9) - 7 = 20
27 - 7 = 20
20 = 20 True - this point is on the line

B(5,0)
3(5) - 7 = 0
15 - 7 = 0
8 = 0 False - this point is not on the line

C(3,2)
3(3) - 7 = 2
9 - 7 = 2
2 = 2  True - this point is on the line

I hope this helps
