Let's say Jackson's age now is x.

In 20 years, (so 20+x), Jackson seven years ago will be 2/5ths of that age.

So 2/5(20+x)=x-7

Then you solve the equation
8+2/5x=x-7
15=3/5x
x=25
Jackson is 25 years old. 

Let's check our answer! In 20 years, Jackson will be 45. 7 years ago, he was 18. 2/5 of 45 is 18. Our answer is correct!

This question doesn’t really make sense- is it multiple choice, if so what are the options? A can be anything as long as it’s the same?

How do I subtract fractions? Please explain step by step to get marked!
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Explained below :)

(I tried my best, sorry if it doesn't make sense.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: 1/4 - 1/8= ?

1: Find the common denominator (bottom number)

2: If the common denominator is 8 then you multiply 1/4 by 2/2 to get the denominator of 8. If you needed then you can multiply the other fraction to get the same denominator.

3: Once you get multiply that then you get 2/8 -1/8.

4: Subtract the numerator (top number) 1

5: Keep the numerator (8)

6: Your answer would be 1/8

Which choice is the appropriate simplified form n restriction for the variable 3x^2 + 6x / x^2 - 2x - 8
mrs_skeptik [129]
\frac{3x^{2}+6x}{x^{2}-2x-8} = \frac{3x(x+2)}{(x-4)(x+2)}= \frac{3x}{x-4} 
\\ \\ \frac{3x}{x-4} , x \neq 4

x \neq -2

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO WHOEVER IS CORRECT

So I believe that the position the triangle is sitting in is the original position that the question started with correct? (Wasn't sure if you moved it before the screenshot or not)

So for all three points of the triangle, move each of them 6 units to the left since the rule has (x-6). If it was x+6, it should be 6 units to the right then.

After you move it 6 units to the left, move the points (all three) 4 units down since (y-4) means moving in the y-direction downward!

That should be the new place for the triangle to be positioned.

Hope this helps!
