A) x + y = 17
B) x * y = -308
B) y = -308 / x Substituting this into A)
A) x -308 / x = 17
A) x^2 -308 = 17x
A) x^2 -17x -308 = 0
x = 28
y = -11
1.7 miles: subtract 1.5 from 3.2 which equals 1.7 (make sure to line up the decimals!)
Answer:
4x + 3y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Gradient = -9 -11/ 8 + 7
= -4/3
Equation of the line...
y = mx + c
y = -4/3(x + 7) + 11
Multiplying through by 3...
3y = -4x - 28 + 33
3y = -4x + 5
4x + 3y = 5
