Answer:

First number = 4

Second number = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first number = x, the second number = x + 5.

The calculation can be expressed as follows:

x + 2(x + 5) = 22

First, expand the bracket 2(x + 5):

x + 2x + 10 = 22

Combine like terms:

3x + 10 = 22

Subtract 10 from both sides:

3x = 12

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 4

First number = 4

Second number = 4 + 5 = 9

How do I graph y=-6/5x

kkurt [141]

-6/5 is the slope. you start at point (0,0) and then move down 6 units and to the right 5 units and then create one point. from that point, go down 6 units and to the right 5 units and repeat. when you reach the bottom of the graph stop. go back to (0,0) and then move up 6 units and to the left 5 units. connect the points with a ruler and add arrows to each side. label your line with "y=-6/5x" on the line
