Answer:

Mariya is 1 year old

Vikram is 7 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the present ages of Mariya and Vikram.

Let the present age of Mariya be M and the present age of Vikram be V

From the question, we are told that in 6 years time, Mariya will be as old as Vikram is now

Thus, mathematically;

M + 6 = V ••••••(i)

Furthermore , in 2 years time Vikram will be 3 time older than Mariya

Mathematically;

( V + 2) = 3( M + 2)

V + 2 = 3M + 6

V = 3M + 6-2

V = 3M + 4 •••••••(ii)

So let’s equate the V

3m + 4 = m + 6

3m -m = 6-4

2m = 2

m = 1

But V = m + 6

V = 1 + 6

V = 7

Both lines pass through the point (-3,-4). one has a slope of 4 and the other has a slope of -1/4
Alchen [17]
If the question is to find the slope-intercept form of both lines, here's the answer:
Both lines pass through the point (-3,-4), so we can use these coordinates in both equations. The slope-intercept form is represented by y=mx+b, with m the slope, b the intersection of the line with Y'Y for x=0, y and x the coordinates of a point.
Let's first apply all these for the first line, with a slope of 4.
y = mx + b
y=-3; x=-4; m=4. All we need to do is find b.
-3 = 4(-4) + b
-3 = -16 + b
b=13
So the equation of the first line is y= 4x + 13.

Now, we'll do the same thing but for the second line:
y=-3; x=-4; m=-1/4, and we need to find b.
-3 = (-1/4)(-4) + b
-3 = 1 + b
b= -4
So the equation of the second line is y=(-1/4)x - 4

Hope this Helps! :)

a.)48

b.)528

c.)448

Step-by-step explanation:

a.)8x8=64. 4x4=16 64-16=48

b.)48(from a. answer)x11=528

c.)11x8(x2 for the other side)=176. 11x4x4=176.

48x2=96. 176+176+96=448
