I'm stuck on this question
can someone help me please

neon crystal
#

child is x

#

Robyn is x+28

#

x+28+1=3(x+1)

#

x+29=3x+3

#

29-3=3x-x

#

26=2x

#

x=13

#

Do you understand @tulip roost?

#

i have 2 question left to finish this homework and it's hard

red nacelle
tulip roost
#

they didn't even put a video for help 😕

red nacelle
# tulip roost

Use the diagram and see where they overlap, find x and y

#

Basically it's where the two lines overlap

#

Look for x by going up

#

And y is the horizontal bit

tulip roost
#

this is where they overlap right?

red nacelle
#

x = 1.6
y = 1.8

#

Yes.

tulip roost
#

and second one

#

with the axes

red nacelle
# tulip roost

With the second bit subsitute the numbers Into the equation 1/4x+5 and the other one

#

Join the points together

#

Se3 where they overlap

#

*See

#

And find x and y

tulip roost
#

its confusing

#

wait soo find x and y

red nacelle
#

Plot that and see where they overlap to see x and y

tulip roost
#

can you do it please it just impossible for me

#

i don't get anything of this stuff and normally you learn this in year 10 or 11

#

defo not in year 9

red nacelle
#

You start simulations equations in the year 9 syllabus, the course begins in year 9

tulip roost
#

i didn't start it

red nacelle
tulip roost
#

i didn't do year 7 in england

#

i moved in year 8 to england

red nacelle
#

Oh right.

tulip roost
#

can you plot it for me please?

#

i just need those 2 question and i'm done with this homework

red nacelle
#

x = -2
y = 4.5

#

If you substitute those values in theh are the same for both questions so the answer is correct

#

So x = -2, y = 4.5

#

Done

tulip roost
#

it's correct

#

thank you soo much

red nacelle
#

Yes

#

No worries

#

🙂

past pendant

#

for the question about robyn and his child the answer is 13?

past pendant
#

Noo

#

42

tulip roost
#

ohh 42

#

my bad

past pendant
#

ye

tulip roost
#

it says it's wrong

past pendant
#

hmmm

#

Try

#

@tulip roost Show me it saying its wrong

#

Cause i just rechecked thw working out and it’s correct

#

If u substitute x

#

into the equation

#

x+28+1=3(x+1)

tulip roost
#

i have a new question now

past pendant
#

13 + 28 + 1 = 3(13 + 1)

#

42 = 42

#

Bro it shod be correct

#

??

#

@neon crystal the thing is probably buggin out idk

past pendant
tulip roost
past pendant
#

do the same

#

x+26+1=3(x+1)

#

x + 27 = 3x + 3

#
  • 3 and take away x
celest urchin
#

isn't it 41????

#

13 + 28

past pendant
#

But it was after a year lol

celest urchin
#

ah

past pendant
#

Also

#

13 x 3 isnt 41

#

So it doesnt make sense

celest urchin
past pendant
#

I think the thing was just bugging

past pendant
celest urchin
past pendant
#

She’s 28 yrs older bro

#

if x is 13 then she’s gonna be 41

#

that’s why u add the additional 1

#

to signifiy that both have aged one year

#

so when you get x from the equation

#

it’s 13

celest urchin
#

well according to that 42 is wrong sooo

past pendant
#

and when you reinput x into the equation

#

look

#

13 + 28 + 1 = 3(13 + 1)

#

42 = 42

#

so

#

yh

#

dunno man

#

the thing is wrong

tulip roost
#

sparxmaths moments

past pendant
#

Sparx is buggy

#

Lol

#

But the questions are challenging sometimes so i like it

tulip roost
#

hate sparx

past pendant
#

so we had x + 27 = 3x + 3

#

and then

#

24 = 2x

#

x = 12

tulip roost
#

wait

#

let me try it

past pendant
#

12 + 26 is 38

#

3(x + 1)= 38 + 1

#

so

#

12 + 1 = 39

tulip roost
#

thx bro

#

hegarty better
