The answer is .....ALOT. JK. the real answer is 6 or 7 new sweaters.
Since the graph is not provided and you have not describe which temperature is represented by x or y, we cannot tell what the meaning of any particular coordinate might be. In general, the meaning is the temperature value on the vertical scale that corresponds to zero on the horizontal scale.
For example, if the horizontal (x) scale is °C, then the y-intercept will be 32 °F, the value on that scale that corresponds to 0 °C.
If the horizontal scale is °F, then the y-intercept will be -17 7/9 °C, the value on that scale that corresponds to 0 °F.
In order to answer this question let's suppose,
Joe is x miles from the beginning and y miles from the end. These assumptions are necessary to answer further:
Now,
x=2y
x+y=30
plugging in x=2y in the above equation
2y+y=30
3y=30
y=10
Hence, according to our calculations, Joe has to hike 10 miles further

Hello There!
As for this problem, we would have to set up an equation in order to determine the missing age. We would do this because we want to find the missing age and by setting up an equation it will help find the age easier, as opposed to manually calculating it. With that said, let's begin to solve.
First, we would create an equation based on what the question says, which would look as:
x + x + 2 = 12
2x + 2 = 12
Subtract two from both sides.
2x = 10
The grand daughter is 5 years old and since the grandson is two years older he is 7.
Thus,
The age of the granddaughter is 5
The age of the grandson is 7
