Hey there! :)

y = 3/4x - 2

To find the slope and y-intercept, simply use slope-intercept form to understand this.

Slope-intercept form is : y = mx + b ; where m = slope, b = y-intercept.

Therefore, you must ask yourself : which value is in the "m" spot and which value is in the "b" spot in our given equation?

Using this logic, we can come to the conclusion that :

Slope = 3/4 & Y-intercept = -2

~Hope I helped! :)

a father is now 38 years older than his son. Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son. let x represent the age of the son no

Helga [31]

The present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

Solution:

Given that, a father is now 38 years older than his son

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Let "x" be the age of son now

Therefore, from given,

Father age now = 38 + age of son now

Father age now = 38 + x

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Age of son ten years ago = age of son now - 10

Age of son ten years ago = x - 10

Age of father ten years ago = 38 + x - 10

Then we get,

Age of father ten years ago = twice the age of son ten years ago

38 + x - 10 = 2(x - 10)

28 + x = 2x - 20

2x - x = 28 + 20

x = 48

Thus son age now is 48 years old

Father age now = x + 38 = 48 + 38 = 86

Thus present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

Jan bought 6 cookies and 4 doughnuts for 3.50. Tom bought 12 cookies and 5 doughnuts got 5.23. Write and solve a system of equat

iren2701 [21]

0.19 for one cookie and 0.59 for one doughnut

x for how much one cookie costs and y for how much one doughnut costs
6x+4y=3.5
12x+5y=5.23

solve by substitution: (elimination would work too)
4y=3.5-6x
y=0.875-1.5x
12x+5(0.875-1.5x)=5.23
12x+4.375x-7.5x=5.23
4.5x=0.855
x=0.19
now use x to solve for y:
6(0.19)+4y=3.5
1.14+4y=3.5
2.36=4y
y=0.59

Check the work: 6(0.19)+4(0.59)=3.5
