Answer:
It should be 75 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
1) the standar form of the equation is ax+by = c, therefore, for y = -2/3x+5, multiply by 3 the previous equation, and its result is 3y = -2x+15⇒ 3y +2x = 15
the final result is 2x+3y = 15
It can help you by showing you what you do more simplified. For example 3(x+5) is 3 time x + 3 times 5
No, because if you substitute (4, -2) into x and y in each equation, they are not the same as the value on the right side of the equation.
2(4) + 4(-2) = - 2
8 + -8 = -2
0 = -2 <---- this is not correct.
-4(4) + -2 = -14
-16 + -2 = -14
-18 = -14 <----- this is not correct.
