Let Morgan = X

Then Mary = 5X ( 5 times as old).


The sum is 72, so 5x +x = 72

5x +x = 6x:

6x = 72

Divide both sides by 6:

x = 72 / 6

x = 12

Morgan is 12 years old.

Mary is 5(12) = 60 years old.

A line contains the points (6,8), (-2, k) and (-10, 4). What is the value of k?
Alik [6]

Answer:

k = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em>

m = (4 - 8)/(-10 - 6)

m = -4/-16

m = 1/4

y = 1/4x + b

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

4 = 1/4(-10) + b

4 = -5/2 + b

b = 13/2

Step 3: Rewrite equation

y = 1/4x + 13/2

Step 4: Find <em>k</em>

y = 1/4(-2) + 13/2

y = -1/2 + 13/2

y = 12/2

y = 6
