Jackson is two times older than Shelly. If the sum of their ages is 18, how old is Jackson?

2 answers:

6 0

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:

Jackson is 12 and Shelly is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know Jackson is two times older than Shelly, it only makes since for our answer to be 12.

to find this you can make two circles and add dashes in each until you reach 18, but add 2 to Jackson to each 1 you put for Shelly.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left(w^8\right)^8\\$

$\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule:\:}\left(a^b\right)^c=a^{bc}$

$\left(w^8\right)^8=w^{8\times\:8}\\=w^6^4$

Which equation is the BEST fit for the data in the graph? A) y = 8x – 75 B) y = 75x – 8 C) y = -8x + 75 D) y = -75x + 8

vivado [14]

Answer:

Most Likely C) y = -8x + 75

Step-by-step explanation:

The scatter plot shows a negative association, so the line of best fit has a negative slope. The eliminates A and B, since their slopes are positive.
The highest point is (0,75). Because of this, it is safe to assume that would be the best estimate of the y-intercept.
Out best answer is $y=-8x+75$

The axis of symmetry of a parabola is a line about which the parabola is symmetrical.

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry of a parabola is a line about which the parabola is symmetrical. When the parabola is vertical, the line of symmetry is vertical. When a quadratic function is graphed in the coordinate plane, the resulting parabola and corresponding axis of symmetry are vertical.
