Answer:

J = 32

E = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

E is the number of hours for the Escobar family

J is the number of hours for the Johnson family

E + J = 32

E * 20 + J * 30 = 960

Multiply the first equation by -20 so we can use elimination

-20 E -20 J = -640

Add this to the second equation

E * 20 + J * 30 = 960

-20 E -20 J = -640

---------------------------------

         10 J = 320

Divide by 10

J = 32

Now find E

E + J = 32

E  + 32 = 32

E = 0

The equation of line AB is y = 5x + 1. Write an equation of a line parallel to line AB in slope-intercept form that contains poi
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The equation of the line y= 5x+1. Line that is parallel to the function given should have the same slope as the equation which is 5. We use the point-slope form in order to find the second equation that contains the point (4,5).

y - 5 = 5(x-4)

y = 5x - 20 +5

y≈ 5x -15
