2/5 = m / 70
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(5)(m) = (2)(70)
5m = 140
m = 140/5
m = 28 <===
<span>The first number = x
The </span>second number = 2x-3
x + 2x-3 = 36
3x = 36+3
3x = 39
x = 39/3
x = 13
The first number = x = 13
The second number = 2x-3 = 2*13 - 3 = 26 - 3 = 23

<h3>Answer : y = ⅚x - 3</h3>
════════════════════
<h3>Known</h3>
x1 = 6
y1 = 2
x2 = (-6)
y2 = (-8)

<h3>Question</h3>
Equation of the line (y = mx + c)
════════════════════
<h3>Way to do</h3>
#First, you find the gradient (m)

#Now use the formula of equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = ⅚(x - 6)
y - 2 = ⅚x - 5
y = ⅚x - 5+2
y = ⅚x - 3

It’s 8/4 which equals two
Answer:
(x -
)(x +
)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 5 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then
x² - 5
= x² - (
)²
= (x -
)(x +
)
