Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both equations express y in terms of x we can equate the right sides
3x + 5 = - x + 3 ( add x to both sides )
4x + 5 = 3 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
4x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = - 0.5
substitute x = - 0.5 in either of the 2 equations
using y = - x + 3 then y = 0.5 + 3 = 3.5
solution is (- 0.5, 3.5 ) → c

Answer: (C) (14,8)</h3>
============================================
Explanation:
The perimeter of the square is 36, so each side length is 36/4 = 9 units.
Point B is located at (5,17). We move down 9 units to get to (5,8), which is the location of point A. Then we move 9 units to the right to arrive at (14,8) which is point D's location.
Or we could go from B = (5,17) to C = (14,17) and then to D = (14,8). Each time we move 9 units.
You go up 4 times and go to the left 2 times so the slope would be 4/-2
Two solutions exist,
2(x - 1) = 8
2x - 2 = 8
2x = 10
x = 5
&
2(x + 1) = 8
2x + 2 = 8
2x = 6
x = 3
the two solutions are 5 and 3
