First you find two numbers that when you multiply they'll equal 5 then when you add or subtract, they'll equal -7
(x-1)(2x-5)
The correct answer is 900yds.
Maybe wrong, however i think it is
y=3/2x + 0.5
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: Jane's age
y: Helen's age
By writing the system of equations we have:
y = x + 8
y-20 = 3 (x-20)
Solving the system we have:
x = 24
y = 32
Answer:
Jane is 24 years old
Helen is 32 years old
the equation for Jane would look like:
x + 8 = 3 (x-20) + 20
Where is the Graph of the equation?
