The answer is 14 - x.

If she is 14 now, and the question is looking for her age x years ago, it is basically just asking you to subtract x from 14.

It also can't be x - 14, because that means Susie's age is x and the question is asking for her age 14 years ago, and it can't be 14x, because that's 14 multiplied by x.

The answer is 14-x because if she 14, to find out x years less than 14, you would have to subtract x from 14 and the equation for that would be 14-x. :)

Which equation represents a line that passes through (2, - 1/2) and has a slope of 4 ?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

y=4x-8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point- slope form, since you are given one point and one slope.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Plug coordinates and slope in.

y-(-1/2)=4(x-2)

Solve

y+1/2=4x-8

y=4x-8.5

What is the Anwser if a divide 33 into 2 groups so the ratio is 4 to 7
Naddika [18.5K]
You have to solve this algebraicly.
To do this set up the proportion and add x to each term.
You get 4x and 7x
Set this equal to 33
4x+7x=33
Combine like terms and get 11x=33
Divide by 11
x=3
Now go back to 4x and 7x
Multiply them by x and get 12(4×3=12) and 21(7×3=21)
One group is 12 and the other is 21.
