Answer:
w=5h-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original formula h=(1/5)w+(8/5)
Subtract -8/5 on both sides to isolate the w, so h-8/5=(1/5)w
Now you have to get rid of the 1/5, so multiply 5(h-8/5), the 5 in the 8/5 cross each other out. You are left with 5h-8

Answer:
40 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's imagine a+b=63
63-12=51 (since they were both 6 years younger)
A is double B
34+17=51
34/2=17
You need to add the 6 years back onto the mothers age - 34+6=40
40 years old
If you wrote this in point-slope form, it’ll be y+8=-6(x-2).
This equation written in slope intercept form would be y = -6x+4.
He messed up because he was supposed to change the double negative into a positive then solve. He was not supposed to add 8 on both sides.
So, the answer is y = -6x+4.
Hope this helps!
