Bethany, Lauren, Amanda, and David all meet at a family reunion. They are comparing their ages. They have found that Lauren is 1

3 years older than Bethany and David is 11 years older than Amanda. They also found that the product of Bethany's and Lauren's ages is equal to twice Amanda's age. Also, if they subtract 20 years from both Bethany's and Lauren's age, the product is equal to David's age.
If x represents Bethany's age and y represents Amanda's age, then which of the following systems of equations can be used to determine the ages of all four family members based on their findings?

Lauren =l
David=d
Bethany's =x
Amanda =y
l=x+13
d=y+11
lx=2y
<span>(x+13)x=2y
</span>2y=x^2+13x
y= \frac{1}{2}(x^2+13x)
or
y= \frac{x^2}{2}+ \frac{13}{2}x
(x-20)(l-20)=d
<span>(x-20)(x+13-20)=y+11 </span><span>
</span>y+11=(x-20)(x-7)
y+11=x^2-27x+140
y=x^2-27x+129
so I believe its b
Hope this helps :)

ycow [4]
<span>The student apparently added numbers without taking into account direction. They seem to have added 15 and 25 and divided by 2 to get the horizontal component of the middle stop when they should have added 15 and -25 and divided by 2. A similar mistake was made on determining the vertical component. The middle stop should have been calculated as 5 blocks west and 7 blocks south of the central station. So your answer is C.</span>

Question 1 (1 point)
melisa1 [442]

Answer: Sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations can intersect at no points; this is when the lines are parallel, which means they have the same slope and different y-intercept.

A system of equations can intersect at one point; this is when the lines have different slopes.

A system of equations can intersect in infinitely many points; this is when the graphs overlay one another, which means they are graphs of the same line.  The two equations would equal the same thing.
