X=27 and y=11
if you let each number equal x and y we know the sum is 38 so x+y=38
and the smaller is 16 less than the larger
. so if we say the smaller number is 7 then x-16=y
these can be solved as a simultaneous equation. x+(x-16)=38
2x-16=38
2x=54
x=27
(27)-16=y
y=11
so the answer is x=27 y=11

First, we have to understand the slope-intercept form.

\large \boxed{y = mx + b}

A linear function/equation has three forms and the slope-intercept is one of the form. It is also commonly used in Function topic while the other two forms are commonly used in Analytic Geometry.

In the slope-intercept form, the m-term represents the slope while b-term represents the y-intercept of a graph.

<em>W</em><em>h</em><em>i</em><em>c</em><em>h</em><em> </em><em>e</em><em>q</em><em>u</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>o</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>r</em><em>e</em><em>p</em><em>r</em><em>e</em><em>s</em><em>e</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>l</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>e</em><em>a</em><em>r</em><em> </em><em>f</em><em>u</em><em>n</em><em>c</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>o</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>h</em><em>a</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em><u>s</u></em><em><u>l</u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>p</u></em><em><u>e</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>f</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>5</u></em><em> </em><em>a</em><em>n</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em><u>y</u></em><em><u>-</u></em><em><u>i</u></em><em><u>n</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u>e</u></em><em><u>r</u></em><em><u>c</u></em><em><u>e</u></em><em><u>p</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>f</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>-</u></em><em><u>6</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

As you notice the bold, italic and underlined words in the question that I quoted or rewrote. I've just explained that the slope is m-term and y-intercept is b-term.

Therefore, substitute m = 5 and b = -6 in the equation.

\large{y = mx + b \longrightarrow \bold{y = 5x + ( - 6)}} \\  \large \boxed{ \tt{ \purple{y = 5x - 6}}}

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions regarding the linear function, don't hestitate to ask. Good luck with your assignment and have a nice day!
