Mrs. Smythe = x
Daughter = y

x = 2y
(x - 10) + (y - 10) = 46
x - 10 + y - 10 = 46
x + y - 20 = 46
x + y = 66
Put 2y in for x
2y + y = 66
3y = 66
y = 66/3
y = 22

The daughter is 22
The mother = 44

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Jesse - 150 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the graph, it shows that the rise is 140 and the run is 1. 140/1 is 140, making the slope for Khalid is 140. The equation (y = 150x) shows that the slope is 150 (y = mx). Since 150 is greater than (>) 140, Jesse's train is more faster than Khalid since she is moving at 150mph rather than 140mph.

Also, is this for Pearson Realize?

boys:32 = 4*8

The greatest common factor is 8
