Answer:
<u>2 years old</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Ellie's age ⇒⇒⇒ x
And Genya's age ⇒⇒⇒ y
∵ The sum of Ellie's age and Genya's age is 60
∴ x + y = 60 ⇒ (1)
∵ In six years, Genya will be eight times as old as Ellie
∴ (y + 6) = 8 (x+6)
∴ y + 6 = 8x + 48 subtract 6 from both sides
∴ y = 8x + 42 ⇒ (2)
By substituting from 2 at 1 with the value of y
∴ x + (8x + 42) = 60
∴ 9x = 60 - 42 = 18
∴ x = 18/9 = 2
∴ y = 60 - x = 58
So, Ellie's age now = 2 years old
And Genya's age = 58 years old
Answer:
Part 1) Subtraction Property of Equality
Part 2) This property can be used , because addition and subtraction have inverse relationships
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The<u><em> subtraction property of equality</em></u> tells us that if we subtract from one side of an equation, we also must subtract from the other side of the equation to keep the equation the same
so
we have

Solve for y
Applying Subtraction Property of Equality
subtract 10.50 both sides


Remember that this property can be used , because addition and subtraction have inverse relationships.
Answer:
Function 1 is negative with a slope of -5 and Function 2 is positive with a slope of 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Slope Formula: (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) </em>
<u>Function 1:</u> m = -2 - (-12) / 1 - 3
m = 10 / -2
m = 5 / -1
m = -5
<u>Function 2:</u> m = 3/1
m = 3
