Answer:
I CAN'T ANSWER THAT BUT I CAN LOVEYOU
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: Maggie's age
y: Age of Maggie's brother
We write the system of equations that models the problem.
We have then:

We solve the system of equations.
For this, we use substitution:

From here, we clear the value of x:


Answer:
Maggie is 9 years old
Long leg = 8 → opposite
short leg = 6 → adjacent
hypotenuse = ?
8² + 6² = c²
64 + 36 = c²
100 = c²
√100 = √c²
10 = c
sin ∠BOC = opposite / hypotenuse
sin ∠BOC = 8 / 10
sin ∠BOC = 0.80
tan ∠BOC = opposite / adjacent
tan ∠BOC = 8 / 6
tan ∠BOC = 1.33
Try y=-2x-3 (I think that should be it)
