307,407 rounded to the nearest thousand is 307,000.... because it is closer to 307,000 then it is to 308,000
Step-by-step explanation:
let the younger person be x and older be y
4x + 9 = 24
4x = 15
x = 3.75
y = 24 - 3.75
y = 20.25

Answer: Top row, third option (far right)</h3>
Explanation:
The notation 
means "floor of x". Whatever decimal value x is, we just ignore the decimal portion and just focus on the integer part. We round down to the nearest whole number. We always round down.
For something like x = 2.5 or x = 2.7, the value of will be 2. It doesn't matter that 2.7 is closer to 3 than it is to 2. The interval 
will be entirely on the x axis since we are taking the result of the flooring operation and subtracting off 2. Notice how x = 3 is not included. This is because x = 3 leads to y = 1 instead of y = 0. So we have an open hole at the end of the interval. The same goes for any other piece as well.
