Answer:
y=2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation looks like y=mx+b. Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope is already given to us, so m is 2.
To find b use the equation . So, to find the y-intercept use b=-7-(2*-1). This equals b=-5.
So, plug in the values to get the final equation y=2x-5.
Answer:
x=1, y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -3x + 10 - first equation
y=-3x + 4 - second equation
rearrange the expression to
-3x-y= -10
3x-y= -4
pick an equation and simplify; lets pick the second equation
3x-y= -4
divide 3 by both sides
x= - third equation
substitute the value of x into an equation; lets pick the first equation
-3x-y= -10
-3- y = -10
simplify. -3 cancels 3 so we are left with
-1(-4+y)-y = -10
simplify
4-y-y= -10
4-2y= -10
subtract 4 from both sides
-2y= -10-4
-2y= -14
divide -2 by both sides
y=7
substitute the value of y, (y=7) in an equation, we are using the second equation
3x-y= -4
3x-7= -4
3x = -4+7
3x= 3
divide 3 by both sides
x=1
so the answer is x=1, y=7
