Answer:
<u>The ages of Paul and Selena are 13 and 7 years old.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Age of Paul = x
Age of Selena = x -6
Age of Paul and Selena in 15 years:
x + 15 = 4 (x - 6)
x + 15 = 4x - 24
x - 4x = -24 - 15
- 3x = -39
x = 13
<u>Paul now is 13 years old and Selena is 7 years old. In 15 years, Paul will be 28, that is 4 times the present age of Selena.</u>
Answer:
y=x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
the standard form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
TO FIND THE SLOPE: we take the x and y intercepts as a fraction. in this case the line touches the y axis (vertical) at point/value 2 and the x axis at point 2 as well. This means the slope is 2/2x which can be simplified to 1x or just x.
TO FIND THE Y INTERCEPT: we find where the line touches the y axis at point 2.
the slope is plugged into the m of the equation and the y intercept is plugged into the b of the equation.
First I would change the descriptions of the numbers into expressions.
first number is n
second number is n + 6
third number is 4n (4 x n)
Then you would insert these expressions into an equation and isolate n.
n + n + 6 + 4n = 144
n + n + 4n = 144 - 6
6n = 138
n = 138/6
n = 23
Lastly, you would plug in this value into all of the expressions.
first number is 23
second number is 23 + 6 = 29
third number is 4(23) = 92
Therefore, the numbers are 23, 29, and 92.

<span>1.5x-1 > 6.5
1.5x>1+6.5
</span>1.5x>7.5, divide by 1.5
x>5, is represented by the region to the right of the vertical line x=5
2.
<span>7x+3 < -25
7x<-25-3
7x<-28, divide by 4:
x<-4
</span>x<-4, is represented by the region to the left of the vertical line x=-4
Answer: check the picture
Answer:
The horizontal value in a pair of coordinates: how far along the point is. The X Coordinate is always written first in an ordered pair of coordinates (x,y), such as (12,5). In this example, the value "12" is the X Coordinate. Also called "Abscissa"
