Answer:
(A) m = –3 and b = –3
Step-by-step explanation:
If m=–3 and b=–3
The system of linear equations:
y = –3x + 5
y = mx + b
Becomes
y = –3x + 5 ......(i)
y = –3x – 3 .......(ii)
Notice that 5 is added to -3x in (i) and -3 is added to -3x in (ii) and both equals y. This is impossible. Thus the system has no solution.
495-7=488
488/4=122
122*5=610
The answer is 610 students attend the school.
A, it’s the move for that wuestion
Y=5x - 3
Because the difference in the y values are 5, the rise is 5. That is the TOP of the slope. The difference in the x values is 1, that is the run or the BOTTOM of the slope. So m = 5/1.
Using y = mx + b
2 = 5(1) + b
-3 = b
Therefore, y = 5x -3
