1c. 3x - 2y = 6
x = 5 - 2y

What they mean by substitution is that you need to put that x that they gave you into the x of the first equation to get y.

Right now it looks like this:
3x - 2y = 6

Now you have to put (5 - 2y) into the x of the equation.

3(5 - 2y) - 2y = 6

Now solve.
First distribute the 3.

15 - 6y - 2y = 6

Combine like terms.

15 - 8y = 6

Get rid of the 15 by subtracting it from both sides.

-8y = -9

Divide both sides by -8.

y = 1.125

Now put the y into the second equation.

x = 5 - 2(1.125)
x = 5 - 2.25
x = 2.75


x = 2.75
y = 1.125

3x-2y=6

x=5-2y

 replace x in the 1st equation with x in the 2nd one so you get:

3(5-2y)-2y=6

15-6y-2y=6

15-8y=6

-8y=-9

y=1.125

x=5-2(1.125) = 5-(2.25)=2.75

check: 3(2.75)=8.25, 2(1.125)=2.25, 8.25-2.25 = 6

y = 1.125

x = 2.75

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the
xeze [42]

Answer: V= 330.513 cm 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = l x w and with a square the length and width are the same, additionally the volume of a pyramid can be found by using the formula (L)(w)(h)/3 so

8.7 x 8.7 = 75.69cm^2

75.69 x 13.1 = 991.539

991.539 ÷ 3 = 330.513 cm^3

What is the slope of the line passing through (-3, 5) and (5, -3)?
Slav-nsk [51]
Dy/dx, ie., the difference in y divided by the difference in x. If you have two points A and B, sort them in ascending order of x.

dx = 5 - -3 = 8 (x coordinates of B minus x coordinate of A)
dy = -3 - 5 = -8 (y coordinate of B minus y coordinate of A)

dy/dx = -1

So the slope is -1. The equation of the line is y=2-x.
