You can distribute the q to both terms to get
The answer is: [D]: " 157" .

g(x) = 8x² + 9x − 7 ;
g(4) = 8(4²) + 9(4) <span>− 7 ;
</span>
= 8(4*4) + 36 <span>− 7 ;
</span>
= 8(16) + 36 <span>− 7 ;
</span>
= 128 + 36 <span>− 7 ;
</span>
= 164 − 7 ;
= <span>157 .</span>

1. A. parallel, because when you get y by itself it is y=-2x+7, the two equations have the same slope which means they are parallel.
2. B. sometimes, in order for two lines to be parallel they have to have the same slope so, it is possible that two lines say with a slope of 3, those would be parallel BUT it doesn't always have to have a positive slope for it to be parallel like in question 1.
3. C. never, If they have the same slope they are parallel despite whatever the y-intercept is.
"Will is twice as old as Jill."
Jill's age . . . . . J
Will's age . . . . 2J .
"Three years ago . . .
Jill's age then . . . . . J - 3
Will's age then . . . . 2J - 3
". . . Jill's age then was 2/5 of Will's age then."
J - 3 = (2/5) (2J - 3)
Multiply
each side by 5 : 5J - 15 = 2 (2J - 3)
Divide
each side by 2 : 2.5 J - 7.5 = 2J - 3
Subtract 2J
from each side: 0.5 J - 7.5 = -3
Add 7.5
to each side: 0.5 J = 4.5
Multiply
each side by 2 : J = 9
Jill is 9 y.o. now.
Will is 18 y.o. now.
