Answer:

54 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Joyce age = x

Alex age = y

3x = 2y - - - (1)

y - 9 = 2(x - 9)

y - 9 = 2x - 18

-9 + 18 = 2x - y

9 = 2x - y

y = 2x - 9 - - (2)

3x = 2y

3x = 2(2x - 9)

3x = 4x - 18

18 = 4x - 3x

18 = x

Hence,

Mrs stone is 3 * 18 = 54 years

Sav [38]

We will have the following:

*First: We determine the translation rule:

We have that the point went from (3, -4) to (0, -5), thus the translation rule would be:

(x,y)\to(x-3,x-1)

Second: We apply the translation rule to the other point to determine it's image, that is:

(8,7)\to(8-3,7-1)\to(5,6)

So, the image of the second point is (5, 6).

I need a written response to solve all 4 steps
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

a. -2

b. s = 2 and y = -5

c. (2.5, -9)

d. -7x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a. In the image, I have used rise over run, which is -8/4 or -2.

b. slope formula is mx + b = y, where m is slope and b is the y-intercept. In the equation 2x - 5y = -10, 2 is the slope and -5 is the y-intercept.

c. Plug in all given numbers into an equation and the ones you do not have will be in the points you need it to be. Once you graph the equation you will receive (2.5, -9).

d. y = mx + b

   5 = (-7)(-1) + b

   5 = 7 + b

   -2 = b

y = -7x - 2

Solve the given one-step equations. Show your work.
laila [671]
Isolate for each variable.
1. z= 6 - 10
z= -4

2. y= 48/8
y=6

3. q= 1+12
q= 13
4. 18 x 2= a
36= a
5. r= 7 x 3
r= 21

I think you can try the rest :)
