Mindy is 36 years old. mindys age is 3 years older than two times jakes age. let j represent jakes age. which equation can be used to solve for jakes age

The equation is 2j + 3 = 36

Step-by-step explanation: The first clue is Mindy’s age which is given as 36. Also Jake’s age is given as j. However the clue to finding Jake’s age is that,

Mindy’s age is three years older than (that is + 3) two times Jake’s age (that is 2 x j, or simply 2j).

If Mindy’s age is 36, then the equation needed to solve for Jake’s age is

36 = 2j + 3 OR better still

2j + 3 = 36

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3
