Let Carl's age be c and Ben's age be 3c.

Equation:

3c = 2c + 2

=> 3c - 2c = 2

=> c = 2

So, Carl is 2 years old.

write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of -3 and contains the point (4, -5).
Novosadov [1.4K]
You can answer this question by plugging the given values into point-slope form, which is y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1}). M will represent slope and x_{1} and y_{1} will represent the x and y coordinates.

   y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1})   Substitute in the values
y - (-5) = 4 (m - 4)   Cancel out the -(-5)
   y + 5 = 4 (m - 4)   Use the Distributive Property
   y + 5 = 4m - 16    Subtract 5 from both sides
       
         y = 4m - 21

how for is Blaine's house if you must drive 6.5 hours through the woods at an average of 45mph to get there?
omeli [17]
Six and a half hours at a speed of 45 mph. 45 mph is forty five miles per hour. since there are six full hours, multiply six (time) by speed (45) to get the distance within the six full hours, which is 270 miles. you also have an additional half hour at a 45 mph speed, so rather than going 45 miles in one hour, you for half an hour, meaning you go 22.5 miles. add these two together (270 + 22.5) to get 292.5 miles. a faster way to get to this would be to multiply 6.5 * 45. hole this helps!
