Question

Steve's mom's age is 7 years less than 3 times Steve's ages.​

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 3x + 7

(Not sure what the question was so, I just put it in slope intercept form)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be Steve's age.

Steve = x

Steve's Mom = y

Now let's create an equation:

y - 7 = 3x

y = 3x + 7

(Not sure what the question was so, I just put it in slope intercept form)

Please let me know if I misunderstood the question that way I can help you! <3

Answer 2

Answer:

Steve's mom is 65.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = Steve's age.

s + (3s - 7) = 65

4s - 7 = 65

4s = 72

s = 18

Check:

Steve is 18

His mom is (3 * 18) - 7 = 54 - 7 = 47

14 + 47 = 65

Yep.

18 + 47 = 65
