Answer: jackson is 12
explanation:
let the age be represented by x
jackson is 2 times older than shelly so
2x is jackson’s age and x is shelly’s age
since the sum of their ages is 18 then:
2x + x = 18
solve:
3x = 18 ➔ divide by 3 on both sides
x = 6
so now we know shelly is 6
jackson is 2 times older than her so:
2(6) = 12
Answer:
x = 4
Move variables to the right and constants to the left. Then divide.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 10 = 7.5x (Given)
-2.5x = -10 (subtraction property of equality)
x = 4 (division property of equality)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Side Opposite to ∠x is called YZ
The side Opposite to ∠y is called XZ (that's the hypotenuse of the triangle)
Side Opposite to ∠Z is XY
Multiply both sides of your equation bye the denominator
Answer:
b=5
Step-by-step explanation:
C(1,3) and point D(4,-3)
Since we want the equation in slope intercept form we must first calculate the slope (m):

By point slope formula and using point C (1,3) we have:
So the slope is -2 and the y -intercept (b) is 5.
