Answer:

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

plug in the x value, y = -2(2) + 1

simplify, y = -4 + 1

simply again, y = -3

we can plug the y and x in to make sure it is equal

-3 = -2(2) + 1

simplify, -3 = -4 + 1

simplify again, -3 = -3

add 3 to both sides, 0 = 0

one possible answer is -3 for y, and -2 for x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) so lets substitute -2 as x:

y=(-2)^2+1

(-2)^2=-2*-2=4

hence

y=4+1

y=5

Mrs. Martini is 6 years more than 3 times as old as Tony. Eight years ago, she

zalisa [80]

Mrs Martini age is 42 years and Tony age is 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

Mrs. Martini is 6 years more than 3 times as old as Tony
Eight years ago, she was 2 years less than 9 times as old as he was then

Assume that Tony is x years old now

∵ Mrs. Martini is 6 years more than 3 times as old as Tony

∵ Tony is x years old

- Multiply the age of Tony by 3 and add 6 to the product

∴ The age of Mrs Martini = 3 x + 6

8 years ago

- Subtract 8 from the age of each one

Tony age = (x - 8)

Mrs Martini age = (3 x + 6) - 8 = 3 x + 6 - 8 = 3 x - 2

∵ Eight years ago, Mrs Martini was 2 years less than 9 times as old

as Tony was then

- Multiply Tony age by 9 and subtract 2 from the product

∵ Tony age from 8 years ago = x - 8

∵ Mrs Martini age from 8 years ago = 3 x - 2

∴ 9(x - 8) - 2 = 3 x - 2

- Simplify the left hand side

∴ 9 x - 72 - 2 = 3 x - 2

- Add like terms

∴ 9 x - 74 = 3 x - 2

- Subtract 3 x from both sides

∴ 6 x - 74 = -2

- Add 74 to both sides

∴ 6 x = 72

- Divide both sides by 6

∴ x = 12

∵ x represents the age of Tony

∴ Tony is 12 years old

∴ 3 x + 6 is the age of Mrs Martini

- Substitute x by 12

∵ 3(12) + 6 = 36 + 6 = 42

∴ Mrs Martini is 42 years old

Mrs Martini age is 42 years and Tony age is 12 years
