2+4+5 is 11 and 33/11 is 3 so for every 1 is 3 years,
 the first is 2 so is 2x3=6
the second is 4 so is 4x3=12
the third is 5 so is 5x3=15

You could also write it as:
1st child's age:= 2x
2nd child:= 4x
3rd child:= 5x
2x+4x+5x=33
11x=33
x=3
Then
1st child's age:= 2x= 6
2nd child:= 4x= 12
<span>3rd child:= 5x= 15
</span>To check if it's correct you need to sum up: 6+12+15=33

Select the scenario that correctly represents the given graph.
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

C. The vertical distance of a roller coaster from the ground changes with respect to its horizontal distance from the beginning of the ride.

Step-by-step explanation:

See how the graph is in a "U" shape? That tells us that it first decreases and then goes back up at some point.

The way you would find this answer is to go through each scenario (A, B, C, and D) and think about which thing would make sense to go down and then up.
