Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:

To find the point where this line intersect the y-axis, we put x=0 into the given equation.
When x=0, we have
.
This implies that; y=5.
The y-intercept is (0,5).
Comparing (0,5) to (0,b), we can conclude that; b=5
Answer:
1)
<u><em>k - 5 = m</em></u>
<u><em>n - 3 = s</em></u>
2)
<u><em>Lisa is 17 and Myra is 12</em></u>

<u><em>1) </em></u>Key:
brother = b
me = m/n
sister = s
Equation:
m + 5 = b
m - 3 = s
Answer:
b - k = m
n - 3 = s
<u><em>2)</em></u>
L + M = 19
(L + 5) + M = 29
(L + 5 - 5) + m = 24
L + M = 24 / 2 = 12
L = 12 + 5 = 17
M = 12
Lisa will be 17 and Myra is 12
I believe it is x: opposite angles of a parallelogram;
y: alternate interior angle theorem;
z: sum of the angles of a triangle= 180
The second answer is correct
