Answer:
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies inversely with x then the equation relating them is
y = 
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 25 when x = 
, then
25 = 
= 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )
5 = k
y = 
← equation of variation
When x = 5, then
y = 
= 1
-4x+3+2x-6
The answer is -2x-3
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
For each equation give X a value and solve for Y, do this at least two times for each equation.
Plot those dots on a graph to draw two lines.
The solution is where the two lines cross.
You will see the lines cross at (-1,-2)
Let :
T = Theresa age
H = her brother
We know :
T = H - 14
T + H = 35
Substitute T
H -14 + H = 35
2H - 14 = 35
2H = 49
H = 49/2 = 24.5
Since we know H = 24.5 we then can substitute it to either equation.
T = H - 14
T = 24.5 - 14
T = 10.5
Theresa is 10.5 years old
Her brother is 24.5 years old
