Answer:

a = 22

b = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be represented as a and b.

a + b = 29

a - b = 15

Using elimination method

Add both equations

2a = 44

Divide both sides by 2 to get a

2a/2 = 44/2

a = 22

Now substitute a = 22 in any of the equations to get b .

Using the first equation, we have

a + b = 29

22 + b = 29

Subtract 22 from both sides of the equation

22 - 22 + b = 29 - 22

b = 7

Therefore the two numbers are 22 and 7

Claire is 2 year younger than her sister. The
natta225 [31]

Given:

Claire is 2 year younger than her sister.

The  sum of ages is no less than 44 years.

To find:

Inequality and find the youngest age Claire can  be.

Solution:

Let the age of Claire be x.

Her sister's age = x+2

Sum of their ages is no less than 44 years. It means the sum ages is greater than or equal to 44.

x+(x+2)\geq 44

2x+2\geq 44

2x\geq 44-2

2x\geq 42

Divide both sides by 2.

x\geq 21

It means, Claire age can be greater than or equal to 21. So, the youngest age Claire can  be 21 years old.

Therefore, the required inequality is  2x+2\geq 44 and the correct option is B.

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph x+5y>5 y<2x+4
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The lines represent the inequalities .

Further explanation:

The linear equation with slope m and intercept c is given as follows.

The formula for slope of line with points   and   can be expressed as,

Given:

The inequalities are as follows.

a. x – 5y < –5 and y < –2x – 4

b. x + 5y > 5 and y < 2x + 4

c. x – 5y < –5 and y < –2x + 4

d. x + 5y > 5 and y < 2x – 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The blue line intersects y-axis at , therefore the y-intercept is 4.

The blue line intersect the points that are  and .

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows.

The slope of the line is m = 2.

Now check whether the inequality included origin or not.

Substitute  in equation y=x+1.

0 is not greater than 1 which means that the inequality doesn’t include origin.

Therefore, the blue line is y < 2x + 4.

The orange line intersects y-axis at , therefore the y-intercept is 1.

The orange line intersect the points that are  and  .

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows.

The slope of the line is m =  .

Now check whether the inequality included origin or not.

Substitute  in equation y > .

0 is not greater than 1 which means that the inequality doesn’t include origin.

Therefore, the orange line is y > .

Solve the equation y > .

The equation of orange line is 5y + x > 5.

Option (a) is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (b) is correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (c) is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (d) is is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Hence,  is correct.
