Let's have Steve's age be <em>x</em><em />, and his father's age be <em>f</em>
Then, we can set up equations
Steve is one-fourth as old as his father goes to an equation as x=(1/4)f
In five years (x+5), Steve will be one-third as old as his father will be (f+5). This goes to an equation as x+5=(1/3)(f+5)
We can then solve the first equation for either variable (I will be doing f), and plug it in for a system of equations. 

x=(1/4)f
4x=f ← plug that in for f in the next equation

x+5 = (1/3)(4x+5) ← Solve this for x
3(x+5)=4x+5
3x+15=4x+5
3x+10=4x
10=1x
x=10

Therefore, Steve's age is 10. His father's age is <em>f=4x, </em>plug in 10 for x, and his father's age is 40

Use the equation y = 7x to complete the table. What are the missing values of
Basile [38]

Answer:

D) When x=2, y=14
When x=4, y=28

Step-by-step explanation:

By using slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

I get (1,7) and (3,21) from the table

slope= 21-7/3-1= 14/2= 7

Then I plug in the values into y=mx+b

7= 7(1) +b

b= 0

Getting an equation of y=7x

When x= 2

y= 7(2)= 14

When x= 4

y= 7(4)= 28

A polynomlal has been factored, as SHOWI Deluw.
Tom [10]

Answer:

The zeros are 6,-5,9

Step-by-step explanation:

The factored form of the polynomial is given as:

f(x) = (x - 6)(x + 5)(x - 9)

To find the zeros of this function, we set f(x)=0 and solve for x.

(x - 6)(x + 5)(x - 9) = 0

This implies that:

(x - 6) = 0 \: or \: (x + 5) = 0 \: or \: (x - 9) = 0

We solve for x to get:

x  = 6 \: or \: x  =  -  5  \: or \: x =  9

The zeros are 6,-5,9
