4x + 5y = -13
2(4x + 5y) = 2(-13)
8x + 10y = -26 (equation 1)

5x - 2y = -8
5(5x - 2y) = 5(-8)
25x - 10y = -40 (equation 2)

equation 1 + equation 2,
(8x + 10y) + (25x - 10y) = (-26) + (-40)
8x + 10y + 25x - 10y = -26 + -40
33x = -66
x = -2

substitute x = -2 into equation 1,
8x + 10y = -26
8(-2) + 10y = -26
-16 + 10y = -26
10y = -10
y = -1

The values of x and y are -2 and -1 respectively.

9. Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

  y -11 = 2(x -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is the x-coefficient: 2. The parallel line will have the same slope.

When you know the slope and a point on the line, it is convenient to use the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Your line's equation is ...

  y -11 = 2(x -3)
