There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.
Best of luck my friend. :)
Answer:
It would be 3 75/100 as a mixed number. In lowest terms, it would be 3 3/4.
Hope this helps. :)
Answer:
The equation of this line is y - 3 = 4/7(x - 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, start with the base form of point-slope form.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Now put the slope in for m and the two coordinates in for (x1, y1).
y - 3 = 4/7(x - 7)
The answer to the question is
3x+2=3x-2
Its neither 2/8 is 1/4 simplified, therefore 2/8 is = 1/4
Hope this helped!
