1-3x-y=3
2x+y=25
Let’s start with the first one.
Subtract 1 from each side
-3x-y=2
Then add -3x to each side
-y=3x+2
Then move the negative and change the signs
Y=-3x-2
Now plug into the second equation
2x+(-3x-2)= 25
Now solve for x
2x-3x-2=25
Add 2 to both sides
2x-3x=27
Now subtract
-x=27
Move the negative to the other side because x can not be negative
X=-27
Now plug that into the second equation
2(-27)+y=25
Now just solve
-54+y=25
Y=79

Answer:

$y= -\frac{1}{3}x -6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope formula, you can form this equation! The slope of any equation would replace the m, and the y intercept would replace b!

I added in the slope formula at the bottom, just in case, so you'll see what I mean!

I hope this helps, and I explained enough! Have a great day c:

The triangles below are similar. Find x showing the proportion and all work.

zavuch27 [327]

we are given that

two triangles are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be same

we get

$\frac{2}{6} =\frac{x}{x+2}$

now, we can solve for x

step-1: Cross multiply both sides

$2(x+2) =6x$

step-2: Simplify left side

$2x +4 =6x$

step-3: Subtract both sides by 2x

$2x +4-2x =6x-2x$

$4 =4x$

step-4: Divide both sides by 4

$x=1$

so,

$x=1$ ............Answer
