Given:
Teddy has two sisters. One of them is 3 years younger than Teddy, the other one is 7 years younger than her only brother.
To find:
The age of older sister at the time when the younger sister was born.
Solution:
Let the age of Teddy be x.
One sister is 3 years younger than Teddy.
Age of one sister = x-3 years
The other one is 7 years younger than her only brother. It means other sister is 7 years younger than Teddy.
Age of other sister = x-7 years
Clearly (x-3) > (x-7). So, difference between the ages of sisters is



Therefore, the age of older sister is 4 years when the younger sister was born.
A the slope of the line is 1
to calculate the slope m , use the ' gradient formula '
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) /( x₂ - x₁ )
where (x₁, y₁ ) = 6, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 6)
m =

Answer:
The cost of one taco is $0.87 and the cost of one enchilada is $1.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of tacos be X
and cost of enchiladas be y
So, by using given data, we have following equations
3X + 2Y = 4.93 (1)
2X + 4Y = 6.38 (2)
So, first multiply 1st equation by 2 and 2nd equation by 3, then subtracting 1st equation by 2nd.
= 2 × ( 3X + 2Y = 4.93) (1)
= 3 × (2X + 4Y = 6.38) (2)
= - (6X + 4Y = 9.86) (1)
= 6X + 12y = 19.14 (2)
= 8Y = 9.28
Y = 9.28 ÷ 8 = 1.16
By putting the value of Y in equation 1, we get
3X + 2(1.16) = 4.93
3X + 2.32 = 4.93
X = 2.61 ÷ 3 = 0.87
Hence, the cost of one taco is $0.87 and the cost of one enchilada is $1.16.
