Answer: The slope of the line is m, which is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Don’t mind the two parts I scribbled out, I didn’t a few extra steps when I misread the instructions. Just look at the top left corner and the right side of how I solve for the slope.

Answer:
$10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = the amount Angela has saved.
Let e = the amount Eli has saved.
"Eli has saved $8 more than 1/3 of Angela's savings."
e = a/3 + 8
"If they each save $10 more." then
Eli will have: e + 10
Angela will have a + 10
"Eli will have saved $4 more than Angela's savings."
e + 10 = a + 10 + 4
This equation simplifies to: e = a + 4
We have a system of two equations in two variables.
e = a/3 + 8
e = a + 4
Since both equations are solved for e, we just equate the right sides.
a/3 + 8 = a + 4
Subtract a/3 from both sides. Subtract 4 from both sides.
a/3 - a/3 + 8 - 4 = a - a/3 + 4 - 4
4 = (2/3)a
Multiply both sides by 3/2
(3/2)4 = (3/2)(2/3)a
6 = a
a = 6
Angela has $6.
e = a + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10
Eli has $10.

Answer: B) no solutions</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
Let's isolate the variable y in the first equation
-2x - y = 1
-2x = 1 + y
1+y = -2x
y = -2x-1
Then we'll plug this into the second equation
-4x - 2y = -1
-4x - 2(-2x-1) = -1
-4x + 4x + 2 = -1
0x + 2 = -1
0 + 2 = -1
2 = -1
We run into a contradiction. No matter what x value we pick, the last equation will never be true. This leads to a domino effect to cause the first set of original equations to never be true when considered as a system.
Therefore, this system is inconsistent. There are no solutions. These two lines graph out parallel lines that never intersect.
