No solutions. the answer to an absolute value equation like this one only produced positive numbers, not negative
2x + y = 5
Put the coordinates of the points to the equation and check it:
A. 5 - not make sense
B. (1, 2) - x = 1, y = 2
2(1) + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4 ≠ 5 NOT
C. (2, -1) - x = 2, y = -1
2(2) + (-1) = 4 - 1 = 2 ≠ 5 NOT
D. (3, -1) - x = 3, y = -1
2(3) + (-1) = 6 - 1 = 5 YES
<h3>Answer: D. (3, -1).</h3>
<h2>y + 1 = -3(x - 10)</h2>
Here's the formula:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Substitute numbers accordingly:
y1: so 1 goes in the y1 spot (you switch the signs because it was already negative)
x1: and 10 goes to the x1 spot
m: -3 belongs in m
3/5 of 1/6 is written as
3/5 x 1/6
Multiply both the numerator and denominators together:
3x1 / 5*6 = 3/30, reduces to 1/10.
The answer is 1/10.
