Micah is 5 inches shorter than twice the height of Jasmine
Micah = 5 inches shorter than 2 x Jasmine
Micah = 2 x Jasmine - 5 <em>(jasmine is 32 inches tall. Replace jasmine with 32)
</em>
Micah = 2 x 32 - 5
Micah = 64 - 5
Micah = 59
Micah is 59 inches tall
If I were you, I would make the starting point (3,-6). From there, you will want to use the slope of -1/2 (go down 1 unit and to the right 2 units and draw a point)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations satisfy the given conditions. There are 2 equations and 2 unknowns, so a certain solution can be found.
This can be solved using substitution,
Substituting eqn 2 to eqn 1:
2(2y – 10) + 3y =1240
Simplifying,
y = 180
x = 350
I'm pretty sure that it's b. That's assuming that you find the negative of b^2 and not the square of negative b.
