Write an equation in point-slope form and slope- intercept form for the line.

Help pls, I’m confused

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

(x + y)² = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The expansion of (x + y)² is

(x + y)² = x² + y² + 2xy ← substitute x² + y² = 15 and xy = 5

= 15 + 2(5)

= 15 + 10

= 25

How to substitute 3x+3y=-3 and y=5x-1?

schepotkina [342]

Since y = 5x-1, we can fill it into 3x + 3y = -3. First, let's look at relating to a simpler equation. Let's say that x + y = 9 and y = 3 + 5. Now, we can fill it in to get that x + (3 + 5) = 9. Now, we know that 3+5 is 8, so x + 8 = 9. Now, x = 1. Likewise, we can do the same. For 3x + 3y = -3, all we need to do is to switch the y in 3x + 3y = -3 with 5x - 1. So it would become 3x + 3(5x - 1) = -3. Now we distribute to get 3x + 15x - 3 = -3. Now add three to both sides to get 3x + 15x = 0. Now simplify to get 18x = 0. Now we know that x = 0. Now fill x into y = 5x - 1. So y = 5(0) - 1. Now we know that y = -1.

To check fill in the answer to 3x + 3y = -3.
3(0) + 3(-1) = -3
0 + (-3) = -3
0 - 3 = -3
-3 = -3
Now that our check is completed we now know that x is 0 and y is -1.
