If Roger were 32 years older, he would be three times as old as he is now. How old is Roger?

Mathematics

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation ->

x+32=3x  

(you can get this easily by writing the equation down as you read the problem)

--> revisiting  x+32=3x

-x on both sides to isolate the number and put the like terms together

We are left with  32=2x

Divide 2 on both sides, and you will get x (his current age) --> x=16

Roger is currently 16 years old.

What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form with slope -3/2 and y-intercept -5?
V125BC [204]

About Slope Intercept Form:

  • y = mx + b
  • m represents the slope
  • b represents the y-intercept or AKA the starting point

ABOUT PROBLEM:

  • Since -3/2 is the slope, it represents m in Slope Intercept Form
  • Since -5 is the y-intercept, it represents b in Slope Intrecept Form

y = mx + b

y = -3/2x + -5 --- IN Slope Intercept Form


Hope this helps you!!! :)

What is the equation of a line that has a y-intercept of 4 and an x-intercept of -2?​
Furkat [3]

Answer:

y = 2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points on this line are (-2, 0) and (0, 4).  Going from the first to the second, x increases by 2 (this is the 'run') and y increases by 4 ('rise').

Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run =  4/2 = 2

Using the slope-intercept formula, we get y = mx + b = 2x + b

Let x = -2 and y = 0 to find b:  0 = 2(-2) + b, so b = 4, and the desired equation is then:

y = 2x + 4
