Answer: 45 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

- Father's age is thrice the sum of ages of his two children

- After five years, his age will be twice the sum of their ages

Let x be the two children's current age and 3x be the father's current age

<u>Solve:</u>

Set equation

3x + 5 = 2 ( x + 10 )

Expand parenthesis

3x + 5 = 2x + 20

Subtract 5 on both sides

3x + 5 - 5 = 2x + 20 - 5

3x = 2x + 15

Subtract 2x on both sides

3x - 2x = 15

x = 15

15 × 3 = 45 years old

Hope this helps!! :)

What are (2,1) and (0,-3) in slope-intercept form pls. I will give you brainiest
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Well, the first thing you must do is find the slope

(0,2) (1,-3) I am going to make x1= 0, y1=2, x2=1 and y2= -3

Now, I am going to use the formula for the slope, which is

y2-y1/(x2-x1)

[-3-2]/(1-0)= -5/1 or just -1

Next, I am going to use the point slope form, which is

y-y1=m(x-x1). m=5, x1=0, y1=2

y-2= -5(x-0)

y-2=-5x

+2 +2

y= -5x+2 This is the slope intercept form.

we are done. I am glad to see that you are doing math on a Saturday night.. Good luck... Please rate my answer:)
