L = liz's age now

J = Jack's age now

L-1 and J-1 are their ages one year ago

L-1=3(J-1)

L-1=3J-3

L=3J-3+1

L=3J-2 (to be used later)

L+2 and J+2 are their ages in two years

L+2=2(J+2)

replace L by 3J-2

3J-2+2=2(J+2)

3J=2J+4

3J-2J=4

J=4 is Jack's age now

L-1=3(J-1)

L-1=3(4-1)

L-1=3*3

L-1=9

L=9+1

L=10 is Liz's age now

the price of a taxi ride in phoenix includes an initial fee of $2.75 plus $2.20 per mile. write an equation to show the total pr
ki77a [65]
The format is y = mx + b
where y would be your C
x would be your M
m would be the price per mile (2.20)
and b would be your initial fee (2.75)

put this together in that format and we get
C = 2.20M + 2.75

Direction: Determine whether the given point is a solution to the given system of linear inequalities.
Ann [662]

Answer:

The given point is a solution to the given system of inequalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Again, we can substitute the coordinates of the given point into the system of inequalities. We know that the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of (3,2) are x=3 and y=2, respectively.

Plugging these values into the first inequality, y\leq x+3, gives us 2\leq 3+3, which simplifies to 2\leq 6. This is a true statement, so the given point satisfies the first inequality. We still need to check if it satisfies the second inequality though, because if it doesn't, it won't be a solution to the system.

Plugging the coordinates into the second inequality, y\geq -x+3, gives us 2\geq -3+3, which simplifies to 2\geq 0. This is also a true statement, so the given point satisfies the second inequality as well. Therefore, \bold(\bold3\bold,\bold2\bold) is a solution to the given system of inequalities since it satisfies all of the inequalities in the system. Hope this helps!
