Answer:
y = -4x+15
Step-by-step explanation:
y=x/4+5 may be presented as y = 1/4 x + 5, where a=1/4, b=5
swapping numerator and denominator and inserting an opposite sign in a=1/4, we have:
1/4 --------> 4/1 -------> -4/1 = -4
y = -4x+n
Point (2,7) means that x=2, y=7 substitute it to the equation y=-4x+n, calculate "n":
7=-4*2+n ------> 7=-8+n -------> 7+8 = n -------> 15=n
substituting n=15 to the equation y=-4x+n, we get finally y=-4x+15
X + 2y = 1 ______×1
4x + y = 11 _____ ×2
x + 2y = 1
8x + 2y = 22
8x + 2y = 22
(-)
x + 2y = 1
_____________
7x = 21
x = 3
3 + 2y = 1
2y = 2
y = 1
