T = 4 + 2A
S = 5A - 8
T = S
Since T and S are equal, set them against each other
2A + 4 = 5A - 8
Subtract 2A from each side, and add 8 to each side
12 = 3A
Divide each side by 3
A = 4
So Andrew is 4 years old
If Andrew is 4, then Tom is twice that plus 4, or 12. Sarah is 5 times 4 less 8, or 12.
Answer:
-2
(The coordinate point is (0,-2))
Step-by-step explanation:
First, make an equation of the line.
Start off with finding the slope:
Slope = (13-1)/(5-1) = 12/4 = 3
Then solve for the y-intercept though substitution and simplification:
y=mx+b --> 1=3(1)+b --> 1=3+b --> b= -2
So the answer is -2.
B. It would be 5/2 and -3/4.
