8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the son's age. The father's age is 3x and 3x - x = 24.

Therefore 2x = 24 and x = 12.

The son's age is 12 and the father's age is 36 at present.

Answer: (Mayadc821 wrote this anwser check theyre account for more)

Since you know the x and y values, you just have to plug these into the linear slope-intercept equation:

y = mx + b

-10 = m(1) + b

m + b = -10

b = -10 - m

Now that we have a value for b, we can plug this into the other equation:

8 = m(-8) + b

8 = -8m + (-10 - m)

8 = -9m -10

18 = -9m

m = -2

Now that we know what m is equal to, we can plug this into our first equation to get an answer for b:

b = -10 - m

b = -10 -(-2)

b = -10 + 2

b = -8

Our final equation is y = -2x - 8

Which of the following points are solutions to the inequality below?
Yakvenalex [24]
So, in order to find out which ordered pairs are the solutions to the given inequality above, we just have to plug in the given values.
Lets take option A.
2 > -3(0) + 2
2 > 0 + 2
2 > 2 ---- 2 is not greater than 2, which makes this ordered pair not a solution to the given inequality.
So, do the same with the rest of the ordered pairs.
So the ordered pairs that are the solutions would only be options C, E and F. Hope that answer helps.
