Answer:

older person: 32 yrs younger person: 5 yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

older person age: o

younger person age: y

o=5y+7

o+y=37

Solve with substitution:

5y+7+y=37

6y+7=37

6y=30

y=5

Plug back in:

o+5=37

o=32

You are buying 12-packs of Mountain Dew for $\text{4.50}4.50 each and have a gift card worth $77. The function m\left(x\right)=4
poizon [28]

Answer:

$191

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is given by :

m(x) = 4.50x-7 ...(1)

Where

m(x) is the total cost if you buy x 12 packs of Mountain Dew.

We need to find the cost you pay to buy 44 12-packs of Mountain Dew

Put x = 44 in equation (1), we get :

m(x) = 4.50(44)-7

m(x) = 198-7

m(x) = $191

Hene, the cost for 44 12- packs of Mountain Dew is $191.

Y=kx+1 <br> M(2,-7) <br><br> What is K
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

K = 5m+y/x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for k.

y=kx+1m(2−7)

Step 1: Flip the equation.

kx−5m=y

Step 2: Add 5m to both sides.

kx−5m+5m=y+5m

kx=5m+y

Step 3: Divide both sides by x.

kx/x = 5m+y/x

Therefore, k = 5m+y/x

What is 5,000 x 60 x 2
goldenfox [79]
Do it as simply as possible. 5000 × 2 = 10000. 60 × 10000 = 600000. Because multiplying by a factor of 10 is the easiest possible, always try to get a factor of 10 every time.

Please help me and explain how you got the answer
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

∠NQP = 74°

Step-by-step explanation:

NPQ is a triangle.

We know the sum of 3 angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. So we can write:

N + P + Q = 180

2x + 34 + 2x + 2 = 180

Now, we can solve for x:

2x + 34 + 2x + 2 = 180\\4x+36=180\\4x=180-36\\4x=144\\x=\frac{144}{4}\\x=36

The measure of NQP is "2x+2", we plug in x = 36, and find the measure of NQP:

∠NQP = 2(36) + 2 = 74°
