Given parameters;
Let us solve this problem step by step;
Let us represent Simon's money by S
Kande's money by K
- Simon has more money than Kande
S > K
- if Simon gave Kande K20, they would have the same amount;
if Simon gives $20, his money will be S - 20 lesser;
When Kande receives $20, his money will increase to K + 20
S - 20 = K + 20 ------ (i)
- While if Kande gave Simon $22, Simon would then have twice as much as Kande;
if Kande gave Simon $22, his money will be K - 22
Simon's money, S + 22;
S + 22 = 2(K - 22) ------ (ii)
Now we have set up two equations, let us solve;
S - 20 = K + 20 ---- i
S + 22 = 2(K - 22) ; S + 22 = 2K - 44 ---- ii
So, S - 20 = K + 20
S + 22 = 2K - 44
subtract both equations;
-20 - 22 = (k -2k) + 64
-42 = -k + 64
k = 106
Using equation i, let us find S;
S - 20 = K + 20
S - 20 = 106 + 20
S = 106 + 20 + 20 = 146
Therefore, Kande has $106 and Simon has $146
Answer:
y = -1/2x + b meaning f(x) = -1/2x + b
Step-by-step explanation:
Use two points on the graph that you can find the value of or use Slope = raise/run
let use points (2,0) and (0, 1)
slope = (change in the y-value)/(change in the x-value.
slope = (1 - 0)/(0 - 2)
slope = 1/-2 or -1/2
Or starting at point (2, 0) the run(x movement) = -2 and the raise is 1.
slope = raise/run
slope = 1/-2 or -1/2
Using one point (2,0) and the slope of -1/2, substitute into the slope intersect form, y = mx + b, and solve for "b" .
y= mx + b
0 = -1/2(2) + b
0 = -1 + b
1 = b
Now write your equation: y = mx +b where m = -1/2 and b = 1
y = -1/2x +b
