Set up a system of equations:

y + 4 = 5(x + 4)
y = 9x

Where 'y' represents the mother's age and 'x' represents the daughter's age.

Plug in 9x for 'y' in the first equation:

y + 4 = 5(x + 4)

9x + 4 = 5(x + 4)

Distribute 5 into the parenthesis:

9x + 4 = 5x + 20

Subtract 5x to both sides:

4x + 4 = 20

Subtract 4 to both sides:

4x = 16

Divide 4 to both sides:

x = 4

Plug this into any of the two equations to find 'y':

y = 9x

y = 9(4)

Multiply:

y = 36

So at the present, the daughter is 4 years old and the mother is 36 years old.

Simplify to create an equivalent expression. 8−4(−x+5)
White raven [17]
8 - 4(-x + 5)

As you already know, in order to find the equivalent expression to our already given one, we have to simplify it first :)

8 +4x - 20

**Remember that a negative times a negative is always a positive!!**

Add like terms.

4x + (8 - 20)

Simplify.

4x + (-12)

Get rid of parenthesis.

4x - 12

Look at our answer choices.

Our answer is a. 4x - 12

What is the lowest value of the range of the function
Rasek [7]

The question is incomplete. Below you will find the missing graph.

The lowest value of the range of the function shown on graph is (B) -2.

Graph is the pictorial representation of the function or mathematical relation.

The lowest value of the graph is the value of y when y=f(x) gives the least value.

From the given graph we can clearly see that at x=3 the graph of the given function approaches the least value which is -2.

So the lowest value of the range of the function shown on the graph is -2.

Hence the correct option is (B).
