Answer:
The two numbers are -365 and -1825.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x=y
x-y=1460
--------------
x-5x=1460
-4x=1460
x=1460/-4
x=-365
-365-y=1460
y=-365-1460=-1825
Answer:
-6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
3/2x - 5/4y = 15
-5/4y = -3/2x + 15
multiply each side by (-4/5)
(-4/5)(-5/4y) = (-4/5)(-3/2x + 15)
y = -6/5x - 12
rate of change: -6/5
Rate of change between 1 and 3: find the y values for 1 and 3:
Rate of change = (6-1) / (3-1) = 5/2
Rate of change from 2 and 4:
= (10-3) / (4-2) = 7/2
The rate from 2 to 4 is larger because 7/2 is larger than 5/2
