Answer:
x=-5, y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+2y= -19
-3x-5y= 25
Add the two equations together
3x+2y= -19
-3x-5y= 25
------------------
0x -3y = 6
Divide each side by -3
-3y/-3 = 6/-3
y = -2
Now find x
3x+2y = -19
3x +2(-2) =-19
3x-4 = -19
Add 4 to each side
3x -4+4 = -19+4
3x= -15
divide by 3
3x/3 = -15/3
x = -5
Answer:
6x+30
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 6 by x and 6 by 5, or x 6 times and 5 6 times
The number of pages in the book is actually irrelevant.
Franco reads 30 pages in 1 night. To find how many pages he reads in 7 nights, just multiply by 7.
30*7=210
Franco reads 210 pages in 7 nights.
Solving with Equivalent Ratios:
The ratio of pages he reads per night is 30:1. We need to figure out the ratio <em>x</em>:7, where the variable <em>x</em> is the number of pages he reads in 7 nights.
30:1=<em>x</em>:7
To find x we need to see the similarity between both ratios. This is found by dividing two of the equal sides, here it would be 7 and 1.
7/1=7
This means that the second ratio is 7 times the first ration. To find <em>x</em>, just multiply 30 by 7.
30*7=210
Franco reads 210 pages every 7 nights.
Y=mx+c is the slope standard form
5y=-30-4x
5y=-4x-30
Y=-4/5x-6
