Take -5x + y =13 and rearrange for y:
y=13+5x

Substitute into other equation for y:
-3x+3(13+5x)=3

Multiply out brackets:
-3x+39+15x=3

Simplify:
12x+39=3

Rearrange for x:
12x=-36
x=-3

Substitute back into y=13+5x:
y=13+5(-3)
y=13-15
y=-2

Solve quadratic equation x²-8x-1=0 by formula method

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

x²-8x-1=0

comparing above equation with ax²+bx+c=0

a=1

b=-8

c=-1

$x = \frac{ - b + - \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}$

=(--8+-√(64-4×1×-1)/2×1

=8+-√(64+4)/2

taking positive

x=(8+√68)/2=2(4+√17)/2=4+√17

taking negative

x=(8-√68)/2=2(4-√17)/2=4-√17

Answer:

y = 3x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Line is passing through the points (2, - 2) & (0, - 8)

Slope of line

$\: m = \frac{ - 8 - ( - 2)}{0 - 2} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 8 + 2}{ - 2} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 6}{ - 2} \\ \\ = 3 \\ \\y-intercept = b = - 8\\ \\equation \: of \: line \: in \:slope \:\\ intrecept \: form \: is \: given \: as \\ \\ y = mx + b \\ \\ y = 3x + ( - 8) \\ \\ \huge \red {y = 3x - 8}$
