Answer:
Gary is now 24years
Step-by-step explanation:
let the age of Jan be x and that of Gary be x+15
in six years time they will be as follows
Jan =x+6
Gary=x+15+6=x+21
2(x+6)=x+21
2x+12=x+21
collect the like terms
2x-x=21-12
x=9
Gary =9+15=24years
The answer is to the question is y=-2x+11
We know the equation of a line is y=mx+b. We know the slope (m) is -2 and all we need is the intercept (b).
Since we know one point, we can plug in 6 for x and 3 for y (along with -2 for m) in our equation and then solve for b.
3= -2*6 + b
3= -12 + b
15 = b
Since we now know the intercept we can now write our equation:
y= -2x + 15
