A.
Let x = age of Samantha.
Then x - 2 = age of Emily,
and x + 2 = age of Lauren.
b.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42
c.
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 42
3x = 42
x = 14
x - 2 = 14 - 2 = 12
x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16
The ages of the sisters are 12, 14, 16.

Answer:
the correct answer is marked
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph ranges vertically between 9 and 15, starting at 9 (the minimum) when x=0. The minimum appears again at x=350.
This means the vertical offset is (9+15)/2 = 12, and the amplitude is (15 -9)/2 = 3. The period is 350, so the coefficient of x is (2π/350). All of the answer choices agree on these parameters.
So, the selection comes down to an understanding of how the sine and cosine curves vary. The sine curve starts at zero and increases from there. The cosine curve starts at its maximum (1) and decreases. Here, the curve starts a its minimum and increases, so could be the opposite of the cosine function.
y = -3cos(2πx/350) +12 . . . . . . matches choice C
Answer:
Bus 1 is traveling faster.
Step-by-step explanation:
The information provided states that Bus 1 travels at 55 miles per hour. The graph shows that Bus 2 travels less than 50 miles per hour. This shows that Bus 1 travels more miles per hour.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
C) 20, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
X = 5y
2x + 5y = 60
substitute in 5y for x: 2(5y) + 5y = 60
10y + 5y = 60
15y = 60
y = 4
x = 5y
x = 5(4) = 20
