So we don't know both of their age but we do know that Jessica is 4 year younger so let make x stand for Jennifer age and n is for jessica so our equation needs to be n + 10 = 8 + 2n subtract n from both sides so now we have 10 = 8 + n then subtract 8 from both sides so now we have 10 - 8 = n so jessica is 2 but now we need to find Jennifer age by adding 4 to 2 = 6 

jessica is 2 and Jennifer is 6

Write an expression to model the perimeter of the rectangle. Length is x-9 and width is 3x-4. Part b The perimeter of the rectan
koban [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of something, we add all of the measurements of the sides together.

A rectangle has 4 sides, this means we must double the algebraic hints given to us.

If we add them all up together it will look like this:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

If we simplify it by collecting the like terms:

8x-26=138

We add 26 onto 138

8x=164

To find out what x equals, we divide by 8:

164÷8= 20.5

Answer:

x=20.5cm

x-9 is 11.5

3x-4 is 57.5

I know that you will not give 100 points but just wanted to help.

A math class is having a discussion on how to determine if the expressions 4x-x+5 and 8-3x-3 are equivalent using
Mkey [24]

Answer:

  Both expressions should be evaluated with two different values. If for each substituted value, the final values of the expressions are the same, then the two expressions must be equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both expressions are linear expressions. It takes 2 points to define a line. If the lines defined by each expression go through the same two points, then the expressions are equivalent.

If the expressions have the same value for two different variable values, they are equivalent. (choice D)

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

One more point is needed than the degree of the polynomial expression. That is, quadratic (degree 2) expressions will be equivalent if they go through the same 2+1 = 3 points.
