first invert fraction of the slope from 4/1 to 1/4 and switch sign. then figure out the y-intercept
the algebraic approach would work like this:
-4x + 10 = 1/4x + b
plug in what you got, here: the intersection information
-4*(4) + 10 = 1/4*(4) + b
-16 + 10 = 1 + b
-6 = 1 + b
-7 = b
Let x = The age of Michael
Let 2x-3 = The age of Michaels cousin
X+2x-3=46
x=16+1/3
X = 49 years
I think that’s the answer I’m not 100% sure though
Answer:
Two consecutive numbers cubes differ by 271. Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x + 1. The difference of the two consecutive numbers is 271. ( x + 1 ) ^3 - x ^3 = 271. 1 + 3 x ^ 2 + 3 x - 271 = 0.
