Answer:

money saved by james = 30/2 = 15

equation used

money with James  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let money saved by sister be x

given

James has saved half the amount of money as his sister has saved.

Money saved by James = x/2

Total money saved by both of them = x + x/2

If they both save 30 more

Then

money with sister = x + 30

money with james = x/2 + 30

given that If they both save 30 more, james will have saved 3/4 as much as her sister

thus,

money with james  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

=> 4(x+30*2) /2 = 3x+90

=> 2x + 120 = 3x + 90

=> 3x-2x = 120-90

=> x = 30

Thus,

money saved by james = 30/2 = 15

equation used

money with james  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

Part B
ziro4ka [17]

The linear equation that has a slope of -7 and crosses the x-axis at (3, 0) is:

y =  -7x + 21

<h3>How to find the linear equation?</h3>

A general linear equation is:

y = a*x +b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope must be equal to the limit found in part a, and you say that it is equal to -7, so the slope is -7. And for how is written the problem, I understand that it crosses the x-axis at x = 3.

Then we will have:

y = -7*x + b

Such that, when x = 3, y = 0, then:

0 = -7*3 + b

21 = b

Then the linear equation is y = -7x + 21

Find the distance between each pair of parallel lines with the guven equation y=2x+7 y=2x-3
Doss [256]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept for each line is...

y=2x+7 (0, 7)

y=2x-3 (0, -3)

Note this is because...

y=mx+b

b represents the y-intercept

Using the distance formula...

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2

d=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(7-(-3))^2

d=\sqrt{0+(10)^2

d=\sqrt{0+100}

d=\sqrt{100}

d=10
