The y-intercept is where on the graph the line is intersecting the y=axis. Slope is in the form y=mx+b (b=y-intercept, mx=how far up and over.)
Answer: 1.10
Work: 5 or more raise the next digit, 4 or less keep it
The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:
We have then:
x: liz's age
y: melinda's age
We now write the system of equations:

By solving the system graphically we have that the age of each one is currently:

Next year, the age of liz is:
Answer:
Next year, Liz's age is 11 years.
Note: see attached image for the graphic solution.
Answer:
step one needs to be fixed... you are supposed to subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP 1: Move all terms not containing n to the right side of the equation.

STEP 2: Divide each term by 2 and simplify.
