In the linear equation y = mx + b, y-intercept represents the value of y. It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis(vertical axis)
Finding the y-intercept is done by looking at which point in the graph crosses the y-axis. This point will always have an x-coordinate of zero(0).
8:24 9:27 are some equal solutions.
<span>Bob says he has 3 kids, the product of their age is 72.
So the possible ages of Bob's kids can be taken from the factors of 72
72 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3
</span><span>Finally, bob says, my youngest child called justice.
</span>So meaning, Bob has a youngest child. He didn't mention about a twin.
So the possible ages the following:
1, 2, 36 --> sum: 39
1, 4, 18 --> sum: 23
1, 8, 9 --> sum: 18
<span>Once the sum of the ages will be revealed, then the possible ages are mentioned above.</span>
In this question, you are given an equation with < (less than) sign. You can solve this equation and treat the less than sign same as an equal sign. The only difference is when you mirroring the equation or multiplying both sides with minus, which will change the direction of the sign. The calculation should be:
-24 < x-3 -8 x
-24 +3 < x - 8x
-21 < -7x
-21/-7 <x
3 <x
x>3
The answer is D.×>3
