The next received 2/3 of the remainder.
That means the youngest received 1/3 of the remainder.
That one third was $6.
If 1/3 = $6, then 2/3= $12
the total money the two younger received $18

The oldest received 7/13
the other two then received 6/13
so 6/13 = $18
18/6 = 3
1/13 = $3
3 * 13 = $39

Use the point and the slope to graph each line. Write the equation of the line. The line passes through point (2,-2) and is para
elixir [45]

Answer:

y= -x

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>slope- intercept form</u>

y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope is -1, m= -1.

Substitute m= -1 into the equation:

y= -x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates into the equation.

When x= 2, y= -2,

-2= -2 +c

c= -2 +2

c= 0

Thus, the equation of the line is y= -x.

True

Step-by-step explanation:

First statement

[a b c | d][x]

[a b c]x=d

ax+bx+cx=d

Second statement

Ax=d

Given that A = [a b c]

[a b c]x=d

ax+bx+cx=d

ax+bx+cx=d

Then, they are going to have the same solutions
