Okay so lets call Leah "L" and her cousin "C". We know that L+C=36 ... we also know that Leah is twice her cousins age. Therefore, L=2 times C, or L=2C. This is because Leah's age is equivalent to twice as much as her cousin's.
Now that you know that L=2C, you can plug this back into the equation. This should make it so that's there's only one variable now!
L+C=36
(2C)+C=36 ... here we subbed in L=2C
3C=36 ... we add up the C's
C=12 ... we isolate for C by dividing both sides by 3
So her cousin's age is 12 years old. Leah's age is twice that. Thus, she's 24. If you add the two up: 12+24, you indeed get 36. Hope that helps :))
Answer:
A.) The graph is translated 2 units in the positive x-direction
Why?
Because it goes horizontally and vertically downwards in the opposite quadrant
Answer:
(f • g)(3) = 100, the distance in miles the bus traveled
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of (miles/hour) and (hours) is (miles), so only answers with units of distance are applicable. The numbers are ...
f(3) = 2·3² +2 = 20 . . . . miles per hour
g(3) = 3+2 = 5 . . . . hours
so (f·g)(3) = f(3)·g(3) = 20·5 = 100 . . . . miles
This means only the first answer choice is applicable.
The ratio would be 3:4, or however you write ratios.
Hope this helped! :)
