Lets label the variables...
x=Claudia's age now
y=Claudia's dad's age now


Lets write a system...
7x=y (7 of Claudia's age are equivalent 1 of her father's)
x+20=\frac{y}{2} (Claudia plus 20 years is equal to half of Claudia's father's age now)

Now solve the system using the elimination of substitution method.
Hope that helps :)

Lara solved an equation incorrectly, as shown below:
son4ous [18]

We have been given the steps to solve the equation as

Step 1: 2x = 18

Step 2: x = 18 − 2

Step 3: x = 16

There is an error in step 2.

We have 2x=18

x is in multiplication with 2. So in order to get rid of 2 from the left hand side, we perform opposite operation of multiplication i.e. division.

So we must divide both sides by 2.

Therefore, A is the correct option.

A) She did not divide 18 by 2.

If the slope is 2 and the line goes through (3,-3) what is the equation?
motikmotik

Answer:

y = 2x -9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of a line using slope and a point, first use the slope to create the basic line using the slope and work from there.

For instance, the base equation here is

y = 2x

This line passes through the point (0, 0).

You can then plug in a value for x. In this case, use the value of 3, as it corresponds with your question.

y = 2 * 3

A point on the line of y = 2x would thus be (3, 6).

To make the y-value equal -3, you must then subtract from the original equation. There are 9 units between 6 and -3, so you must subtract nine units in the equation. You should get this at the end:

y = 2x -9
