Answer:
y = (6/11)x + 13/11
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + c
m = (-1-5)/(-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11
y = (6/11)x + c
When x = 7, y = 5
5 = (6/11)(7) + c
5 = 42/11 + c
c = 5 - 42/11
c = 13/11
y = (6/11)x + 13/11
11y = 6x + 13
A.
Let x = age of Samantha.
Then x - 2 = age of Emily,
and x + 2 = age of Lauren.
b.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42
c.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42
3x = 42
x = 14
x - 2 = 14 - 2 = 12
x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16
The ages of the sisters are 12, 14, 16.
If the truck can carry 1000 apples at a time, Bananaville is 1000 miles away from Appleland and you pay one apple per mile, then it's impossible to deliver any apple to Bananaville, because on 1000 miles you'll pay 1 apple * 1000 miles = 1000 apples as a tax. So no matter if you go once, twice, three times or a hundred times there - you'll be never able to deliver any apple.
Answer: The highest number of apples you can get to Bananaville is 0.
