Answer:

a=2(s-5)

a(your age): 20

Step-by-step explanation:

a stands for your age

s stands for sister

a=2(s-5)

1-substitute 15 for s a=2(15-5)

2- a=2(10)

the 15-5 stands for sisters age minus five which gives you brothers age, 10. You multiply it by two because your brother is half your age.

3-a=20

check your work:

because your brother is 10 and you are 20, he is half your age (10/20 can be simplified to 1/2)

Hope this helped, if you have any other questions please lmk!

The scatter plot shows the amount of sleep Aria got the night before a test and her test scores. Use the y-intercept, (0, 62), a
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

y = 3x + 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Trend line equation in the form :

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = intercept

Using the points :

(0, 62) ; (6, 80)

Slope, m = Rise / Run = (y2-y1) / (x2 - x1)

y2 = 80 ; y1= 62 ; x2 = 6 ; x1 = 0

m = (80 - 62) / (6 - 0)

m = 18 / 6

m = 3

Intercept, b = value of y when x = 0

(0, 62) ; hence, b = 62

y = 3x + b

y = 3x + 62
