The answer is 1 and 1/24. You add the numerators and the denominators across then simplify.
1.y=-7x-2
2.y=-4x+10
next time juust plug the numberes in for example for the first one right the y=mx+b then plug in 5 for the y and -1 for the x then -7 for the m then solve
Let us assume that the age of Janet's sister is = x
Then the age of Janet = x + 5
Now we also know that their combined age is equal to 51 years. Then we can write the equation as
x + (x + 5) = 51
2x + 5 = 51
2x = 51 -5
2x = 46
x = 46/2
= 23
So the age of Janet = x + 5
= 23 + 5
= 28 years
So the age of Janet's sister is 23 and Janet's age is 28
