Y intercept is 2 slope is 5
156 more miles.
My Work:
The Sister drove 5/4 of 156 miles. <u />The <u />"of" stands for multiplication. 5/4 * 156/1
<u />After we solve the equation, we learn that the Sister drove 195 miles, which would mean that the sister probably drove too far, leaving Nicole to drive back for them.
Because Nicole is driving the rest of the 195-156 miles, if we use the triangle sum method from elementary school, we can flip the answer to 195-156 with 156 and know that the Sister drove 156 more miles than Nicole without having to know how far Nicole drove.
Answer:
b. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not 100% sure if this is the answer but here was my thinking process:
1/4 of 24 is 6, and 6 + 3 is 9, so the brothers age is probably 9, and then 24-9 is 15, and the difference between 15 and 9 is 6. Once again I don't know if this is right or not, but either way I hope this helps!
Change the numbers into improper fractions then subtract
