Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2 is the answer.

If the boy is twice as old, and the sister's age is represented by <em>x</em>, then we multiply 2 to x to represent the boy's age.

Then we add 2 when 2 years pass by.

What is the equation of the line parallel to the given line with an X intercept of 4

mixas84 [53]

You haven't shared the given line, so all I can do here is to invent a line and then show you how to write the equation of a new line which is parallel to mine and which has an x-intercept of 4.

My invented line: y = (2/3)x + 3

The new line MUST have the same slope: m = 2/3.

Then y = mx + b becomes y = (2/3)x + b. Find the x-intercept by setting y = 0 and solving for x: (2/3)x = 0 - b. Now replace x with 4 and find b:

-b = (2/3)(4) = 8/3. Then b = -8/3, and the new line is

y = (2/3)x - 8/3.

The required value after simplification of the s = -16/3. None of these are correct.

Given that,
To simplify $[\frac{x^{2/3}x^{-1/2}}{x\sqrt{x^3}\sqrt[3]{x}}]^2$ and to find the value of s in $x^s$ .

<h3>What is simplification?</h3>

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Simplification,

$=[\frac{x^{2/3}x^{-1/2}}{x\sqrt{x^3}\sqrt[3]{x}}]^2\\= \frac{x^{4/3}x^{-1}}{x^2x^3*{x}^{2/3}}\\= \frac{x^{1/3}}{x^{17/3}}\\=x^{-16/3}$
Comparing with $x^S$
s = -16/3
