The variable for Maggie will be M and 2x-3 be her younger brothers age (<u>Twice her age). </u>We then would turn this into <u>an algebraic problem</u>. (m+2x -3=24).
3x-3=24, we would add 3 to both sides (-3 and 24). 24 + 3 equals 27, we now have to divide -3x and 27 on both sides, which equals <u>9. (x=9)</u>

The distance between any 2 points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) in the coordinate plane, is given by the formula:
Thus the distance between points t(13, 1.6) and v(5.4, 3.7) is found using the formula as:
To check which ordered pair (point) is in the solution set of the system of given linear inequalities y>x, y<x+1; we just need to plug given points into both inequalities and check if that point satisfies both inequalities or not. If any point satisfies both inequalities then that point will be in solution.
I will show you calculation for (5,-2)
plug into y>x
-2>5
which is clearly false.
plug into y<x+1
-2<5+1
or -2<6
which is also false.
hence (5,-2) is not in the solution.
Same way if you test all the given points then you will find that none of the given points are satisfying both inequalities.
Hence answer will be "No Solution from given choices".
i can help if you have the picture
