Solve for y, if x = 2

y = 5x + 3

Simply plug in "2" for "x" in our given equation :)

y = 5(2) + 3

Simplify.

y = 10 + 3

Simplify.

y = 13

To check our work, simply plug in 13 for y in the original equation, as well as plugging in 2 for x.

y = 5x + 3

13 = 5(2) + 3

Simplify.

13 = 10 + 3

Simplify.

13 = 13

Therefore, y = 13

~Hope I helped!~

Substitute in x = 2:

y = 5(2) + 3

y = 10 + 3

y = 13

PLS HELP ASAP If -2 is added to each of the x and y intercepts of the line 3x + 2y = 6, find the new equation of the line

ella [17]

Answer:

3x + 2y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept of the line occurs at y = 0

Given the equation 3x+2y = 6

3x+2(0) = 6

3x = 6

x = 2

The x intercept is at (2, 0)

Adding -2 to each axis will give (2-2, 0-2) = (0, -2)

y intercept of the line occurs at x = 0

Given the equation 3x+2y = 6

3(0)+2y = 6

2y = 6

y =3

The x intercept is at (0, 3)

Adding -2 to each axis will give (0-2, 3-2) = (-2, 1)

The new coordinates are (0, -2 and (-2, 1)

Using the point slope form of the equation y - y0 = m(x-x0)

slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 1-(-2)/-2-0

m = 1+2/-2

m = -3/2

Using m = -3/2 and (0, -2)

y - (-2) = -3/2(x-0)

y+2 = -3/2 x

2(y+2) = -3x

2y+4 = -3x

-3x-2y = 4

3x + 2y = -4

Hence the required equation is 3x + 2y = -4

Kathi and Robert Hawn had a pottery stand at the annual Skippack Craft Fair. They sold some of their pottery at the original pri

grigory [225]

Answer:27 pieces were sold at the original price.

63 pieces were sold at the new price

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the original price.

Let y represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the new price.

They sold some of their pottery at the original price of $9.50 for each piece. This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the original price would be 9.5x

They later decreased the price of each piece by $2. This means that the new price was 9.5 - 2 = $7.5

This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the new price would be 7.5y

If they sold all 90 pieces and took in $729, then the equations are

x + y = 90

9.5x + 7.5y = 729 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 90 - y into equation 1, it becomes

9.5(90 - y) + 7.5y = 729

855 - 9.5y + 7.5y = 729

- 9.5y + 7.5y = 729 - 855

- 2y = - 126

y = - 126/- 2 = 63

Substituting y = 63 into x = 90 - y, it becomes
