You are asked to do this problem by graphing, which would be hard to do over the Internet unless you can do your drawing on paper and share the resulting image by uploading it to Brainly.
If this were homework or a test, you'd get full credit only if you follow the directions given.
If <span>The points(0,2) and (4,-10) lie on the same line, their slope is m = (2+10)/(-4), or m =-3. Thus, the equation of this line is y-2 = -3x, or y = -3x + 2.
If </span><span>points (-5,-3) and (2,11) lie on another line, the slope of this line is:
m = 14/7 = 2. Thus, the equation of the line is y-11 = 2(x-2), or y = 11+2x -4, or y = 2x + 7.
Where do the 2 lines intersect? Set the 2 equations equal to one another and solve for x:
</span>y = -3x + 2 = y = 2x + 7. Then 5x = 5, and x=1.
Subst. 1 for x in y = 2x + 7, we get y = 2(1) + 7 = 9.
That results in the point of intersection (2,9).
Doing this problem by graphing, on a calculator, produces a different result: (-1,5), which matches D.
I'd suggest you find and graph both lines yourself to verify this. If you want, see whether you can find the mistake in my calculations.
Answer:
9/10 (one solution)
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
In 20 minutes, John can wrap 10 small boxes and Hank can wrap 12 small boxes. So, Hank can wrap more small boxes in 20 minutes than John can.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
John wraps;
2 small boxes = 4 minutes
1 small box = 
In 20 minutes,
20 minutes = 
20 minutes = 10 small boxes
Hank wraps;
3 small boxes = 5 minutes
1 small box =
In 20 minutes = 
In 20 minutes, John can wrap 10 small boxes and Hank can wrap 12 small boxes. So, Hank can wrap more small boxes in 20 minutes than John can.

Answer:
3x - 20 = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The word is signals the equal sign.
The difference of three times a number and 20 = 13
2. The word difference signals subtraction.
3. The phrase a number sigals that the number is unknown, so a variable should be used. In this case, I'll use x.
4. Three times that number = 3x.
The difference = subtraction.
3x-20=13
