If you start with Malvin’s age, take half of it, increase that result by 5, then divide by 3, and finally double that, you get 8

Answer:

24 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Malvin's age be x.

  • x / 2
  • x / 2 + 5 = 5x / 10  [ By taking the L.C.M.]
  • ( 5x / 10 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) = 5x / 30   [ Multiply with the reciprocal of 3 ]
  • ( 5x / 30 ) * 2 = 5x / 15

Now let's solve the equation,

5x / 15 = 8

       5x = 8 * 15

       5x = 120

         x = 120 / 5

         x = 24

Therefore, Malvin is 24 years old.

If the slope of a line is -1 and two points on the line are (-9, 3) and (-10, r), what is the value of r?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

r=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope of the line is -1.

We also know that the line passes through (-9, 3) and (-10, r).

We want to find the value of r.

First, let's figure out the equation of our line. We can use the point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point.

So, let's substitute -1 for m. Since we know the point (-9, 3), let's use this for (x₁, y₁).

Substitute:

y-(3)=-1(x-(-9))

Simplify:

y-3=-(x+9)

Distribute:

y-3=-x-9

Add 3 to both sides. So, our equation is:

y=-x-6

It passes through (-10, r) and we want to find the value of r. So, let's substitute -10 for x and r for y, since -10 is our x and r is our y. So:

r=-(-10)-6

Evaluate for r. Distribute:

r=10-6

Subtract:

r=4

So, the value of r is 4.

And we're done!
