Answer:
The numbers are -11 and -9.
Step-by-step explanation:
The two numbers are x and y.
x = y - 2
2y = 5x + 37
2y = 5(y - 2) + 37
2y = 5y - 10 + 37
3y = - 27
y = -9
x = - 11
A coefficient of r = -1 is a negative so the dots would move downward as they move to the right ( higher dots are on the left side, lower dots on the right side. As the coefficient gets closer to -1 the dots form more of a straight line then being scattered across the graph.
The last graph, which is marked with the blue dot is the correct one.
D. Have the same number of valence electrons
Simplify both sides if needed. The left-hand side needs simplification.
4(x - 6)

-2x + 6
4x - 24

-2x + 6
All is left to do is add and subtract to get the x variable all alone.
4x - 24

-2x + 6
6x - 24

6 <-- Add 2x to both sides
6x

30 <-- Add 24 to both sides
x

5 <-- Divide both sides by 6
In order to be in the solution set, x has to be less than or equal to 5.
In interval notation: [5, -∞)
