Answer:
Cheryl's age = x = 7 years
Rita's age = y = 17 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Cheryl's age = x
Rita's age = y
Two years ago, Rita was three times older than Cheryl
(y - 2) = 3(x - 2)
y - 2 = 3x - 6
y = 3x - 6 + 2
= 3x - 4
y = 3x - 4
In 3 years, Rita will be twice older than Cheryl
(y + 3) = 2(x + 3)
y + 3 = 2x + 6
y = 2x + 6 - 3
= 2x + 3
y = 2x + 3
Equate both equations
3x - 4 = 2x + 3
Collect like terms
3x - 2x = 3 + 4
x = 7 years
Substitute x = 7 into
y = 2x + 3
= 2(7) + 3
= 14 + 3
= 17
y = 17 years
Cheryl's age = x = 7 years
Rita's age = y = 17 years
Answer:
553 km
Step-by-step explanation:
1:55.3 to 10:553
The answer is C. Once you add the like terms x^2 and 4x^2 you get your answer.
The A’ is your reflected shape. The red line is y=-1, or your line right reflection. To solve, I counted the distance from the red line on the original triangle, and then the same on the opposite side of the red line, and counted the same distance, plotting the points at the final spot.
