Let M be the age of Maggie and B the age of her younger Brother:
Rewrite the problem from English language to Math's:
B = 2.M - 10 (1)
and M + B = 29 (Given) OR B = 29 -M (2)
Plug 2) into 1):
29 -M = 2.M -10
29 + 10 = 3 M →→3M = 39 and M = 39/3 = 13
Replace M by 13 and you will find B =6
Then Maggie = 13 year old and her brother B = 6 year old
Answer:
{x,y,z} = {2,-8,5}
i had this question before
Plug in -3n as n into the functon K(n)=4n+5
so you get
K(-3n)=4(-3n)+5
K(-3n)=-12n+5
Answer:
x = - 1, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = - 2x + 4 → (1)
y = 6x + 12 → (2)
Substitute y = 6x + 12 into (1)
6x + 12 = - 2x + 4 ( add 2x to both sides )
8x + 12 = 4 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
8x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = - 1
Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (2)
y = 6(- 1) + 12 = - 6 + 12 = 6
Solution is (- 1, 6 )
