Write and solve equations here.  Let the two numbers be x and y.  

Then x + 3y = 24, and 5x + 3y = 36.  Solve this system of linear equations.

Note that the first equation can easily be solved for x.  Then x = 24 - 3y.  Subbing 24 - 3y for x in the 2nd eq'n, we get:

5(24 - 3y) + 3y = 36, or   120 - 15y + 3y = 36

                                                    -12y     = 36 - 120, or -12y = -84
                                                                                     -84
                                                       Solving for y:  y = ------- = 7
                                                                                      -12

If y is 7, then x is 24 - 3(7).  Simplifying, x = 24 - 21 = 3.

Then the solution is (3, 7).

By all means insert 3 for x and 7 for y in either of the original equations.  If that equation comes out to be true, you'll know your solution is correct.

A school conducts 27 test and 36 weeks assume the school conducts test at a constant rate what is the slope of the line that rep
frosja888 [35]
Slope equals rise over run. Rise is referring to y values and run is referring to X values. so if they say tests are the Y axis then you use 27 as the rise and 36 as the run. once you have the fraction it is simply reducing the fraction.
27/36= 9/12 = 3/4

Point-lope form for the line that pae through the point (1, –1) and ha a lope of 4
max2010maxim [7]
Answer is
Point-slope form: y + 1 = 4(x -1)
Assuming you wanted
Slope-intercept form: y = 4x -5

Step by step

y - - 1 = 4(x -1)

y + 1 = 4(x -1)

y + 1 = 4x -4

y = 4x -5
