Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.
Answer
y = 4x + 4
slope: (36-16)/(8-3)=4
intercept: 16=3(4)+b -> b=4
I think the awkward science is quite amusing to me
Answer:
Cost of 4 muffins = $3.45
Cost of 12 muffins = (3 sets of x 4 muffins = 12)
Cost of 3 sets of muffins = $3.45 x3 = $10.35
