Answer:

30 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's what we know.

B=5J

M+2=8J+16

M=3B

So now let's solve using substitution.

M+2=8J+16

M=8J+14

But we know that M=3B

3B=8J+14

And we know B=5J

3*5J=8J+14

15J=8J+14

7J=14

J=2

Now, we can plug it into the M+2=8J+16

M+2=2*8 +16

M+2=16+16

M+2=32

M=30

Hope you enjoyed.

Answer: Choice B

(-1,0), (-1,-2), (-3, -1), and (-3, -2)

============================================================

Explanation:

Let's focus on the point (2,0)

If we shift it 3 units to the left, then we subtract 3 from the x coordinate to get 2-3 = -1 as its new x coordinate. The y coordinate stays the same.

That means we move from (2,0) to (-1,0)

Based on this alone, choice B must be the answer as it's the only answer choice that mentions (-1,0).

If you shifted the other given points, you should find that they land on other coordinates mentioned in choice B.

Select all answers that have a value of 22?? Help..
Tom [10]

Let's plug in the variables one by one.

6g - 2h

plug in 5 for g and 4 for h

6(5) - 2(4)

multiply

30 - 8

subtract

→ 22

20g

plug in 2 for g

20(2)

multiply

40

2(g + 1)

plug in 10 for g

2(10 + 1)

add

2(11)

multiply

→ 22

4g + 5h

plug in 1 for g and 4 for h

4(1) + 5(4)

multiply

4 + 20

add

24

Therefore, the answers that have a value of 22 are 6g - 2h and 2(g + 1)
