2p+6a=$14
3p+9a=$21
3p+9a=21
Subtract 9a
3p=21-9a
divide all by 3
p=7-3a
plug it into start equations
2p+6a=14
2(7-3a)+6a=14
14-6a....+6a=14
this zeroes out...
X = Juan's age
y = Eliza's age
Some key words/phrases we can use to help us make the equation are:
-is (whatever comes after this word usually equals the end result, or what it equals)
-two years younger
-than
-half her brother's age
.
just break it down :)
x/2 (half her brother's age) - 2 (two years younger) = y (Eliza is...)
| basically,
v
x/2 - 2 = y
So if Juan is 6, then we need to plug in 6 for x.
6/2 - 2 = y
3 - 2 = y
1 = y
ANSWER: Eliza is one year old.
Answer:
<h2>X = 0</h2><h2>Y = 1</h2>
First of all, observe that this is a line, since you can rewrite the equation as y−x+1=0 , which follows the pattern of the generic line ax+by+c=0 .
To draw a line you need two of its points, which you can connect.
To find two points, you can plug any value for one variable, and solve for the other.
For example, let's choose
x=0 . The equation becomes
0−1=y , and so y=−1 .
The first point is thus (0,−1).
Then, let's choose
x=1 . The equation becomes 1−1=y , and so y=0 . The first point is thus
(1,0).
Now you only need to draw the points
(0,−1)
