The answer is B because it is the only one where the line intersects on the y - axis at -1/2 and 2/3, which are the y -intercepts
Hi!
(l = Lenny
m = Max)
Lenny is 3 times as old as Max.
3m = l
When you subtract Max's age from Lenny's age, you get 24.
L - m = 24
Put in the value of l.
3m - m = 24
There is our equation.
Now solve
2m = 24
2m/2 = 24/2
m = 12
3 * 12 = l
36 = l
The equation is 3m - m = 24
Max is 12 and Lenny is 36.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
C because 100 percent of 15 is 15 and 20 percent of 15 is 3
Let one integer be x, the consecutive odd integer is x+2
reciprocals are 1/x and 1/(x+2)
1/x +1/(x+2)=24/143
make the denominators the same:
(x+2)/[x(x+2)] +x/[x(x+2)]=24/143
143(2x+2)=24(x)(x+2)
286x+286=24x²+48x
24x²-238x-286=0
use the quadratic formula: x=22 this doesn't work because 22 is not an odd number.
or x=-2.1666666666 (this is not an integer)
weird.
