Answer: 6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Maria's age be x

Jonathan is four times Maria's age. This means that Jonathan age = 4x

In 3 years, he will be three times as old as Maria is then. This can be written as:

4x + 3 = 3(x + 3)

4x + 3 = 3x + 9

4x - 3x = 9 - 3

x = 6

Maria is 6 years

Answer:

  Trapezoid Median Theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

The Trapezoid Median Theorem says ...

  The median of a trapezoid is parallel to each base and the length of the median equals one-half the sum of the lengths of the two bases.

__

That's the theorem that would seem to be applicable here.

How to solve this question
Katarina [22]
Direct variation can be written as a proportion. Therefore, we can write:

\frac{8}{4}= \frac{y}{5}
Cross multiply to get:
4y=40
Divide by 4 on both sides to get that y=10.

Solve the following system of equations. With multiplication <br> 4x– 3y = -11<br> - 7x-8y= 6
Aliun [14]

4x - 3y = -11

-7x - 8y = 6

We need to cancel out one of the variables so let's multiply the first equation by 8 and the second by 3 and aim to cancel y.

32x - 24y = -88

-21x - 24y = 18

Now we subtract,

53x = -106

x = -2

3y = 4x + 11 = 4(-2) + 11 = 3

y = 1

Answer: (x,y)=(-2,1)

Check:

4(-2) -3(1) = -8 - 3 = -11, good

-7(-2) - 8(1) = 14 - 8 = 6, good
