Substituting (x, y) with (a, a), since we have:

3a=2a-4, which means that 3a-2a=-4, that is a=-4.

So, the point is (-4, -4).


Remark: a point which lies in the graph of an equation is a solution of that equation. So x=a, y=a satisfies the equation <span> 3y = 2x -4, which makes our substitution legitimate.


Answer: </span>(-4, -4).

Graph y= –3x+4 <br> please help me
Inessa [10]
<span>This tells us two things. Our slope is 3 and our y intercept is -4. 
This tells us that we need to start at (0,-4). 
Plot that point. 
Since our slope is 3 (3/1), move up 3 and right 1. 

This you will end up at point (1,-1). 
Connect these two points in a straight line, and you have graphed your line.
It will look like this</span>

balandron [24]

Answer:

A, B, and C

Step-by-step explanation:

a). -6 ÷ 2 x 5 1/3

= -3 x 5 1/3

= -16

b). 24 ÷ (-3) + 1/2

= -8 + 1/2

= -7.5

c). 36 ÷ 4 x (-2)

= 9 x -2

= -18

d). -54 ÷ (-9) x (-3 2/3)

6 x -3 2/3

= -22

Let f(x) = x - 3 and g(x) = x + 11 find f(x) times g(x)<br><br> What is the answer?
notsponge [240]

f(x) *g(x) = (x-3)(x+11) = x^2 +11x -3x -33 = x^2 +8x -33

Sorry if its wrong :(

The parents club wants to sell buttons to raise money for the local community center sports program. The buttons cost 60 cents e
astraxan [27]

Their profit made will be 4,420

This is because 0.60 x 1300 is 780

And the amount they will make by selling is $5200, because 1300 x 4

So we will do 5200 - 780, and that is the profit made- $4,420
