Transpose the equation:
8x+6y=30
First minus 8x from each side of the equation.
6y=30-8x
Then divide each side by 6.
y=5-1.33x or if you want the answer in exact form:
y=5-4/3x
The slope is 4/3 or 1.333.
Answer:
C. 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the equation: y= 10+5x
Essentially when people ask you find the solution to system of equation, there asking at what x value do these to graphs intersect. The easiest way to do this is to get a graphing calculator, or desmos and type in the equation and find where they intersect. Heck, even the question says to solve it with a graph, but I'll demonstrate it algebraically.
One way you can do this is set the equation equal to each other. This is because you want to know at what x-value has the same y-value. So we get:
x^2 + 6x + 8 = x + 4
We can then combine like terms, or move everything to one side. So we get:
x^2 + 5x + 4 = 0.
Then we can use the quadratic formula to solve for x.
x=(-5 +/- sqrt(5^2 - 4(1)(4)))/(2(1)
This simplifies into:
(-5 +/- 3)/2
Finally we add and subtract:
(-5 + 3)/2 = x = -1
(-5 - 3)/2 = x = -4
And our solution is x = -1, x = -4
