Answer:
Let's solve your system of equations by elimination.
8x+9y=48;12x+5y=21
Steps:
Multiply the first equation by 5,and multiply the second equation by -9.
5(8x+9y=48)
−9(12x+5y=21)
Becomes:
40x+45y=240
−108x−45y=−189
Add these equations to eliminate y:
−68x=51
Then solve−68x=51for x:
−68x
/−68
=
51
/−68 (Divide both sides by -68)
x= −3
/4
Now that we've found x let's plug it back in to solve for y.
Write down an original equation:
8x+9y=48
Substitute
−3
/4
8x+9y=48:
8(
−3
/4
)+9y=48
9y−6=48 (Simplify both sides of the equation)
9y−6+6=48+6 (Add 6 to both sides)
9y=54
9y
/9 = 54
/9 (Divide both sides by 9) y=6
<em><u>Answer: x= −3
/4 and y=6</u></em>

Answer:
It snowed for 6 days in November
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 30 days in November
and 20 goes into 100 five times,
30/5=6, so in november snow fell for 6 days
Point-slope form of a line: We need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m";
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
We have the next equation of line:
y=1/2 x-2 (slope-intercept form y=mx+b)
the slope of this line is 1/2 (m=1/2)
And any one point could be:
if x=0; then y=1/2 (0)-2=-2 (0,-2)
Therefore, we already have the point (0-,2) and the slope (m=1/2)
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y+2=1/2(x-0)
Answer: the point slope form of y=1/2 x-2; would be:
y+2=1/2(x-0)
