Answer: Brandon is 24, Michael is 72.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent Michael

Let b represent Brandon

Then,

m = 3b                    <-----------"Michael is 3 times as old as Brandon."  

m - 18 = 9(b - 18)    <-----------"18 years ago, Michael was 9 times as old as Brandon."  

3b - 18 = 9b - 162

-18 = 6b - 162

144 = 6b

Michael is 3 times as old as Brandon. Also, 18 years ago, Brandon would have been 6 and Michael would have been 54 meaning Michael was 9 times as old as Brandon 18 years ago.

What is the question of the line that passes through the point (-2,-2) and has a slope of 4. Plz someone answer
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:y=4x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the information that the slope is 4 and the line goes through the point (-2,-2). With this information, we can make a linear equation in a point slope form (y - y_{1}= m * (x - x_{1}), so the equation would be y+2=4(x+2), or simplified, y+2=4x+8. in order to solve for y (to make it a slope-intercept equation), we must subtract 2 from both sides. This gives us the equation y=4x+6. Hope this helps!

Question 4
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for chart

Required

Number of off days

To do this, we simply calculate the expected value of the chart.

This is calculated as:

E(x) = \sum x * f

Where

x = days

f = chances

So, we have:

E(x) = 0* 0.3 + 1 *0.2 + 2 * 0.25 + 3  * 0.2 + 4  * 0.02 + 5 * 0.01 + 6 * 0.01 + 7 * 0.01

E(x) = 1.56

E(x) \approx 2
