3x+5y=27.5  ...(1)
2x+3y=16  ...(2)
multiply (1)by 2 and (2)by 3
6x+10y=55  ...(3)
6x+9y=48   ...(4)
subtract (4) from (3)
6x+10y-6x-9y=55-48
y=7
from (2)
2x+3(7)=16
2x=16-21
2x=-5
x=-5/2=-2.5

Calculate the slope of the line between the point (-3,2) and (5,0)
Finger [1]

Answer:

The slope of the line is -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)


We have the points  (-3,2) and (5,0)

  = (-2)/(5+3)

  =-2/8

 = -1/4

The slope of the line is -1/4
