M=123 degrees g=81 degrees f=99 degrees k=57 degrees q=81 degrees s=42 degrees h=123 degrees p=99 degrees r=57 degrees v=123 degrees u=57 degrees
We can represent this situation by the equation 2x+4x+5x=33.
Then 11x=33, and x = 3.
Then the children's ages are in the ratio 2x:4x:5x, or 2(3):4(3):5(3), or
6:12:15.
Do these 3 ages add up to 33? 6 + 12 + 15 = 33? YES!
The children's ages are 6, 12 and 15 years respectively.
This is your answer.... all you are doing is substituting what ever the variable is
Answer:
x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x + 2 = y and y = - 1
Substitute y = - 1 into the equation and solve for x, that is
3x + 2 = - 1 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = - 1
This is verified by the point on the graph with coordinates (- 1, - 1)
