Paul's age = 6 years + Corinne's age
<span>(Paul's age - 10 years) = 3 times (Corinne's age - 10 years) </span>
<span>Let's rewrite it so it's cleaner: </span>
<span>P = 6 + C </span>
<span>P - 10 = 3(C - 10) </span>
<span>Question is P = ? years. </span>
<span>P = ? = 6 + C </span>
<span>We need to know what C is... the second equation can tell us: </span>
<span>P - 10 = 3C - 30 </span>
<span>P + 20 = 3C </span>
<span>P/3 + 20/3 = C </span>
<span>So now we know what C is... we can replace it into the first equation: </span>
<span>P = 6 + [P/3 + 20/3] </span>
<span>we just need to simplify now... it's easiest to get rid of the fractions first: </span>
<span>3P = 18 + P + 20 </span>
<span>2P = 38 </span>
<span>P = 19 </span>
<span>Answer is Paul's age is now 19 years.</span>
(4y+4)+(3x-3)=180 (cause they are supplementary)
4y+3x=179
4y=179-3x
so
y= 179/4 - 3/4x (write these as a fraction; the x goes to the whole fraction)
u cant get a more exact result with 2 unknowns:)
Making less money in today’s dollars (option c)
Answer:
Time should be plotted on the horizontal X - axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
Xavier and Bobby each receive a salary check every week. They combine their checks in one account. Their account has $100 after 2 weeks and $300 after 6 weeks.
In a graph showing the relationship of amount in their account versus time, time should be plotted on the horizontal X - axis.
|7 - x| >= 1
When solving for x inside an absolute value, you can set up two equations. One for the positive and one for the negative(since we’re dealing with absolutes.
We end up with:
7 - x >= 1
7 - x <= -1 (inequalities’ signs flip when multiplying or dividing by a negative.)
7 - x >= 1
7 - 1 >= x
X <= 6
7 - x <= -1
7 + 1 <= x
X>= 8
X: (-infinity, 6]U[8, infinity)
