If Morgan is 15 years younger then Mrs.Santos and there combined age is 442 that means that Mrs.Santos is 221, and Morgan is 206.
30-4 (2+5) = 2
30-4(7)=2
30-28=2
Answer for problem 1: slope = 2, y intercept = 3
Answer for problem 2: slope = 3/4, y intercept = -2
Explanation:
Both equations are in the form y = mx+b. This is known as slope intercept form. This is because we can read off the values of the slope and y intercept very quickly. We have y = 2x+3 match up with y = mx+b. The m is the slope and b is the y intercept. So m = 2 and b = 3 for this equation. A similar situation happens with the other equation as well. It might help to rewrite the second equation into y = (3/4)x + (-2).
3/8
A fraction is a mathematical symbol to represent part of a whole. There are 8 tulips, which is the whole. 3 is the part. So it is 3/8. Hope this helps! :)
Is there any other information given on this?
