The answer is 4
I used the Safari calculator, so I really hope this is right. Best of luck to you
You divide 24 and 6 that's the answer
For #7, one line should have the y-intercept of -2 and a slope of 2/3 and the other line's y-intercept is 1 and its slope should be -5.
In the image provided, the red line represents 2/3x - 2 and the blue line represents -5x + 1.
8) Organize the information you are given.
*Savannah is 24 years older than Ryan.
So, Ryan's age + 24 = Savannah's age.
*Sebastian is 5 times as old as Ryan.
So, Ryan's age × 5 = Sebastian's age.
*Savannah and Sebastian are twins. They have the same age.
So, Savannah's age = Sebastian's age
Let x represent Ryan's age.
Write the equation based on the information you are given.
x + 24 = x(5)
x + 24 = 5x
Solution: D) 24 + x = 5x
3x−2y=12;−3x+8y=−6
Step: Solve3x−2y=12for x:
3x−2y=12
3x−2y+2y=12+2y(Add 2y to both sides)
3x=2y+12
