Wait it says ur in high school so u can't be over 30. that isn't possible. So what's the problem here? not good at math.
Answer: 8(x+5) 8x + 40
40 + 8x
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the 8 by multiplying by each value inside the parentheses.
Commutative property in addition and multiplication allows the terms to be in reversed order.
Jamie's age is n. (given)
Brian's age is 2n. (given)
Half of Brian and Jamie's present age is (n +2n)/2 = 3n/2.
Let m represent Morgan's age now. Then
... m + 8 = 2 + 3n/2 . . . . . in 8 years, Morgan's age will be 2 more than ...
Subtract 8 to find Morgan's present age:
... m = 3n/2 - 6 . . . . Morgan's present age
X = Leonard, y = Liam
x = y + 7
3x + 2y = 96
now we sub
3(y + 7) + 2y = 96
3y + 21 + 2y = 96
5y = 96 - 21
5y = 75
y = 15
x = y + 7
x = 15 + 7
x = 22
<span>Liam has 15 and Leonard has 22. </span>
X= -1/3 (negative x-intercept)
x=4 (positive x-intercept)
