Hi!

(l = Lenny
m = Max)

Lenny is 3 times as old as Max.
3m = l

When you subtract Max's age from Lenny's age, you get 24.
L - m = 24

Put in the value of l.
3m - m = 24
There is our equation.

Now solve

2m = 24
2m/2 = 24/2
m = 12

3 * 12 = l
36 = l

The equation is 3m - m = 24
Max is 12 and Lenny is 36.

Hope this helps! :)

3x - x = 24  2x = 24 ÷ 2.   ÷2 (Cancels out) 24 ÷ 2 = 12  Max is 12 years old, Lenny is 36 years old.  ( (12) x 3 = y = 36 )

Which relation is a function of x?
Lynna [10]

Answer:

The fourth option with x values of -3,-2,4 and 7 is a function of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is due to it having only one of each x value.

On the other tables, they have multiple values for an x value. This means that it is not a function

In need of geometry help, once again my stupid brain cant remember anything.
melomori [17]

You cannot rely on the drawing alone to prove or disprove congruences. Instead, pull out the info about the sides and angles being congruent so we can make our decision.

The diagram shows that:

  • Side AB = Side XY (sides with one tick mark)
  • Side BC = Side YZ (sides with double tickmarks)
  • Angle C = Angle Z (similar angle markers)

We have two pairs of congruent sides, and we also have a pair of congruent angles. We can't use SAS because the angles are not between the congruent sides. Instead we have SSA which is not a valid congruence theorem (recall that ambiguity is possible for SSA). The triangles may be congruent, or they may not be, we would need more information.

---------------

So to answer the question if they are congruent, I would say "not enough info". If you must go with a yes/no answer, then I would say "no, they are not congruent" simply because we cannot say they are congruent. Again we would need more information.
