Answer:

The equation of the line is y = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope of the line
  • b is the y-intercept

The rule of the slope of the line is m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} , where

  • (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line

∵ The line passes through points (3, 4) and (-4, -3)

∴ x1 = 3 and y1 = 4

∴ x2 = -4 and y = -3

→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope above to find it

∵ m = \frac{-3-4}{-4-3} = \frac{-7}{-7} = 1

∴ m = 1

→ Substitute it in the form of the equation above

∴ y = 1(x) + b

∴ y = x + b

→ To find b substitute x by 3 and y by 4 in the equation

∵ 4 = 3 + b

→ Subtract 3 from both sides

∵ 4 - 3 = 3 - 3 + b

∴ 1 = b

→ Substitute it in the equation

∴ y = x + 1

∴ The equation of the line is y = x + 1

If you add​ Natalie's age and​ Fred's age, the result is 41. If you add​ Fred's age to 4 times​ Natalie's age, the result is 86.
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Fred = 26, Natalie = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

N + F= 41 // N = 41 - F (eqn 1)

4N + F = 86 (eqn 2)

sub eqn 1 into eqn 2

4(41 - F) + F = 86

164 - 4F + F = 86

-3F = - 78

F = 26

sub F = 26 into eqn 1

N = 41 - F

N = 41 - 26

N = 15
