Lenny is 3 times older then Max. When you subtract Max's age from Lenny's age, you get 24

Let the Lenny's age is L

Max's age is M

Lenny is 3 times older then Max

Lenny = 3 * Max

So L = 3M

When you subtract Max's age from Lenny's age, you get 24.

L - M = 24

Replace L with 3M

The equation  that represents the situation is

3M - M = 24

(b) Solve the equation

3M - M = 24

2M = 24 (Divide by 2)

M = 12

Max's age = 24

Lenny's age = 3 * 12 = 36

So Lenny's age is 36

Remember, parenthaees are like < and > and brackets ar like ≤ and ≥

domain is how far the x values go
x is left to right

we see they go from -3 to 5, with a filled in dot at -3 and empty dot at 5
means include -3 but not including 5
so like -3≤x<5
or in interval notation
[-3,5) is the domain



range
highest to lowest y value

range is from y=3 to y=-1
we gots full dots so we use brackets
range is [-1,3]



Domain=[-3,5)
Range=[-1,3]

Answer:

700,000

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so to increase something by 7% you have to multiply it by 1.07

so if you divide it by 1.07, you'll find the original price

749,000 ÷ 1.07 = 700,000

X=13 1/3


So first  you have to add 16 +4 = 20. Then, simplify 3/2 to 1.5. Finally divide 20 by 1.5 = 13.333333333, or 13 1/3
