Answer:
For as far as I know -6=a-4+b
Step-by-step explanation:
The (-4,-6) are coordinates like (X,Y) now the formula your using is y= ax+b. So the only thing you have to do is fill X and y in from the coordinates into the formula.
If a single board measures 1/12 of a meter then it would take 12 boards to make a meter. Since, the stack is 2 meters high. You would multiply 12 and 2 to get 24. There is 24 boards in the stack.
Two lines intersect in one point.
Mathematically, yes.
Realistically, no.
The difference in their ages is the parent's age when the child was born.
Let's say that the youngest possible is 12.
Then the ratio would be 10:9 when the parent is 120 and the child is 108.
Not likely.
