Answer 1: Move the -7 over to the right side of the problem.
Answer 2:
Answer 3:
Answer 4: Use the square root for both sides of the equation.
Answer 5: x = -3 <span>± 4 = 1, -7 --> x = 1, -7</span>
We can use a variable equation to solve this. Let A represent alan's age, B represent bob's age, and C represent Cindy's age. So Bob's age would be Alan's age - 5, or a -5 = B. Then Bob's age would be double Cindy's age, so that means 2 multiplied by Cindy's age = Bob's age, or 2C = B. Your two equations are:
A - 5 = B
2C = B
Also a third equation that helps is A + B + C = 20.
Finally, here are the ages.
Alan = 11 years old
Bob = 6 years old
Cindy = 3 years old.

Answer:
1/49 of a chance
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange x - 2y = - 3 into this form
Subtract x from both sides
- 2y = - x - 3 ( divide all terms by - 2 )
y = 
x + 
← in slope- intercept form
with m =
• Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 1, 2) into the partial equation
2 = - + c ⇒ c = 2 + = 
y = x + ← in slope- intercept form
Multiply through by 2
2y = x + 5 ( subtract 2y from both sides )
0 = x - 2y + 5 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
- 5 = x - 2y, thus
x - 2y = - 5 ← in standard form
