The following graph represents the equation y=-3/2x+3? Please select the best answer from the choices provided.

TRUE OR FALSE

FALSE
the line should be going the opposite way :)

The answer is b.3x + 15 = 55 - x

x - Jill's present age
y - dad's present age

In 5 years, Dad will be three times as old as his daughter Jill will be then:
y + 5 = 3(x + 5)

The sum of their present ages is 50:
x + y = 50

We have the system of two equations now:
y + 5 = 3(x + 5)
x + y = 50

Let's rearrange the second equation:
If:         x + y = 50     
Then:  y = 50 - x

Now, substitute y from the second equation (y = 50 - x) into the first one:
y + 5 = 3(x + 5)
50 - x + 5 = 3(x + 5)
50 + 5 - x = 3*x + 3*5
55 - x = 3x + 15

Rearrange it a bit:
3x + 15 = 55 - x
Therefore, the correct choice is b.
