Let's create expressions and equations to model this situation. Let Anthony's age be a.
"Jim is 3 times as old as his cousin, Anthony." Jim's age is 3a.
"The difference in their age is 18." 3a - a = 18
How old is Jim?
Let's solve the above equation for a to first find Anthony's age.
3a - a = 18
2a = 18
a = 9
Remember, Jim's age is represented by the expression 3a. Substitute Anthony's age, 9, into the expression to find Jim's age.
3a
3(9)
27
Answer:
Jim is 27 years old.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the 30 year olds are more likely to pick chocolate as their favorite ice cream because the fraction of people who like chocolate is 14/20 where the other 3 are 4/20 and 2/20. this can be converted into percentages as well by multipling by 5. 70% of people who are in their 30s like chocolate opposed to the 20% and 10%.
Answer:
Can't really show a graph but I'll explain how to:
Step-by-step explanation:
Plot the point (0,-2) since -2 is the y=intercept. After, just count-down 1 unit and count 5 units to the right. I hoped this helped!
Answer:
$15 < $4n + $5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Billy needs to make more than $15 between his allowance and the lawns that he mows. This means our inequality should include $15<. Also, since Billy will make $4 per lawn, that means we need to multiply $4 by the number of lawns he needs to mow, n: $4n. So far we have the following: $15<$4n. Next, we know that he makes $5 each week, on top of what he makes mowing each law. This means we need to add the $5 to the $4n. When we put all of these pieces together, we will get the following inequality: $15<$4n+$5
