We know that the pet Guinea gained 8 ounces in one month.
The question asks for the weight gained by Guinea in also one month.
Since both the described situation and the question both represent the same weight gained in the same duration, therefore, the required integer will be 8.
Answer: 8 ounces.
Answer:
Slope =
or -1
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation given (y = 6 - x) is the same as saying
y = -1x + 6
Since we have a negative x variable and a positive 6 and would also be graphed the same. The only difference is that the second equation I just mentioned resembles the y = mx + b expression more. In this case the slope would be
Slope =
or -1
While the y-intercept would be
y = 6 - x
y = 6 - 0
y = 6
Answer:
Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Laura is 30 years old and Maria is 18 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the present age of Laura and y be that of Maria.
Laura was 3 times older than Maria when Laura had Maria's present age.
Lets say Laura had Maria's present age(y) k years before.Then Maria's age at that time will be y-k where k=(x-y).
Then:
y=3(y-k)
y=3(y-(x-y))
y=3(2y-x)
3x=5y -------1
After two years Laura will become x+2 years old and 2 years ago Maria was y-2 years old. Then:
x+2=2(y-2)
x=2y-6--------2
Solving 1 and 2 we get:
x=30 and y=18
Hence Laura's present age is 30 and Maria's present age is 18.
